🕶️ Above the surface people see “different” colored lenses, being worn by people, whether it’s light or dark outside, whether they’re indoors or outdoors.

🕶️ What they don’t see is how the glasses help them to see words, the world and all its beauty as it actually is (not even tinted by the colored lenses) with the help of custom colored filtered spectral filtered Irlen Lenses.

Let’s break the stigma and continue to spread the word on Irlen Syndrome that affects up to 15% of the general population.

Millennials gave birth to 'Generation Alpha.' Are these kids already doomed? — Los Angeles Times 03/27/2024

Illiteracy is among the most frequent and damning critiques leveled against Gen Alpha online. It is also empirically true of a demographic whose median age is 6½.
In California, children are expected to be able to read around December of first grade, meaning the majority of alphas should have been literate by New Year's Day.
Yet thousands are still struggling, making reading among the starkest reminders of a pandemic most teens and adults would prefer to move past.
Alphas "are some of the hardest-hit kids when it comes to reading," said Shervaughnna Anderson-Byrd, director of the California Reading and Literature Project. "Only 43% of our students are on grade level in California."

Millennials gave birth to 'Generation Alpha.' Are these kids already doomed? — Los Angeles Times Children born from 2010 to 2024 are part of “Generation Alpha,” the demographic successor to Gen Z. They are already being called “feral,” illiterate” and “doomed,” with bad parenting by millennials and the influence of technology blamed for bad behaviors.

11/26/2022

Symptoms of Irlen Syndrome are exacerbated by certain situations - bright and fluorescent lighting, high contrast visual stimuli, and demands for sustained visual attention. This makes reading the perfect pressure cooker and is the reason why so many people with Irlen Syndrome find their reading is affected by the condition. Irlen Syndrome isn't a reading disability, and lots of people with Irlen Syndrome are excellent readers, but this doesn't mean that reading isn't made more difficult than it should be. Irlen Syndrome can make reading less comfortable (causing eye strain and headaches), less efficient (if you have to constantly take breaks), and more labor-intensive (when you have to work harder to achieve the same result as someone without Irlen Syndrome). If words move on the page or the white background is uncomfortably bright, you're probably working harder than you have to in order to read the words on the page. We can help.

In ‘House of the Dragon,’ Paddy Considine Claims the Crown 09/28/2022

Actor and long-time Irlen Advocate, Paddy Considine, is in the spotlight once again for his role in the new HBO series House of the Dragon (the prequel to Game of Thrones), and he’s doing his part to let people know he has Irlen Syndrome and wears Irlen Spectral Filters. In the New York Times, it says, "As for the glasses, they contain special lenses to treat Irlen syndrome, a disorder that is believed to affect the brain’s ability to process visual information. (Much of the science and medical community is skeptical about the affliction, but Considine and many others say the lenses changed their lives.)" We know you and your clients would agree with Paddy! You can read the rest of the article in the New York Times here:
