Irlen Screening Assessment
Before a screening it is essential that an examination has been made by an optician to ensure eye health and rule out visual difficulties which need correction or onward referral for treatment. A screening assessment can take up to 1.5 hours to complete.
During a screening I will explore the range of symptoms, distortions and discomfort related to Irlen syndrome. This process is to establish the best single or combination of Irlen overlay colour. Also considered is the need for other initial accommodations such as paper colour, screen filters and appropriate lighting.
Following screening a report is written outlining the difficulties encountered and recommendations made to reduce the symptoms. This is not a diagnosis of a specific learning difficulty.
Irlen Screenings can only be carried out by specialist Irlen screeners. The assessment will identify symptoms and determine how these difficulties are impacting upon daily life.
As an Irlen Screener I have been trained (Irlen Northwest) to assess whether an individual has a profile consistent with Irlen Syndrome and advise on chosen overlay(s) colour, paper colour and other initial accommodations.
