Cole Martin Tregaskis Optometrists – Professor Evans sees patients for a full eye examination and specific additional tests to look for the visual problems that may be associated with difficulties at school.

Parents can telephone the reception and ask for a special investigation for the assessment of visual aspects of specific learning difficulties.

Some people with dyslexic difficulties benefit from using coloured filters, which when indicated are prescribed as a coloured overlay or precision tinted lenses to try at home and also at school. Eye co-ordination and focussing are checked as children may benefit from eye exercises or glasses.

For more details visit the website, telephone the reception or see the book by Prof Bruce Evans entitled Dyslexia and vision.
