In people who are not suffering from dyslexia, the ” centroid of the spot of Maxwell “, a type of receiver of the light, do not have the same shape from one eye to the other : they are asymmetric. This allows our brain to eliminate the mirror effect and allow you to read.

In dyslexics, these receptors are symmetrical from one eye to the other and may prevent a normal reading, and, therefore, explain the difficulties they suffer from.

This discovery opens up perspectives for diagnosing children with this disorder. More importantly, it helps to imagine of treatment, including through the use of a kind of strobe light to LED.

Dyslexia, the difficulty in learning to read and write, suffers from a great evil

The doctors have never heard about it during their studies, and teachers are in the same case. Result : 500 000 children would be affected by this disorder, and too little to be diagnosed and therefore supported.

It is true that no one agrees on the definition of this condition : some speak of a language disorder, other limit it to a difficulty in learning to read and write from a certain age. The child, a boy more often (the boys are 3 times more affected than girls), confuses the letters close phonetically or similar form, and even goes so far as to reverse some letters. His reading is slow and laborious, then it has a quotient quite normal. Once removed, a sight problem or a hearing impairment, it is necessary to consult a speech-language pathologist because the diagnosis must be done between 6 and 8 years old. And there is a relative emergency, because we see children with dyslexia who are moving towards illiteracy, or illiteracy if we do not intervene quickly.

The other sickness of dyslexia is its fundamental misunderstanding. We don’t know where it comes from this disorder. The psych has a good back, but in the opinion of specialists, it is not a psychological disorder. Beyond this discovery on the eyes, on the current assumptions point to the brain, problems with interference between the right and left brains, and the fight for dominance. It also refers to an issue of laterality : the child is not, frankly, right-handed, or, frankly, left-handed, therefore, it is ambidextrous, and its two brains are in competition.

If your child is struggling to learn to read or write, ask yourself the question : would it not be dyslexic ?

Whatever its cause, it is important to know that dyslexia is not a defect, it can even be the harbinger of remarkable capabilities. The intelligence of the child, his intellectual potential, are not affected to the contrary. The rehabilitation can be long, but brings good results. However, it is necessary to continue to monitor her child closely, and surround him so that his dyslexia does not bring it to the aggression.
