Is Irlen for you?
Irlen has a patented treatment-method which uses specially formulated, coloured overlays or coloured lenses worn as glasses or contact lenses to reduce or eliminate perception difficulties.
In order to to ensure the correct diagnosis, there are a number of tests1&2 that can be performed. Take a look using the links below:
Irlen Contact Lenses
Some occupations mean that eye contact is preferable and some occupations mean that hygiene is important. Contact lenses avoid infection, the risk of infection and the risk of cross infection and bring greater relief from light.
The Irlen Method can tint contact lenses to a 5mm tint. Contact lens tint covers the pupil only and provision for contact lenses can include prescription of plano lenses.
