The irlen screening will determine, more accurately, symptoms and interventions to address scotopic sensitivity syndrome, a sensory processing disorder that is caused by light sensitivity and sensory stress which affects cognitive, physical and emotional function in children and adults.

Scotopic sensitivity, or irlen syndrome, is also known as light sensitivity, photophobia, visual dyslexia, and visual sensory stress. Irlen spectral filters or colored overlays provide immediate benefits and relief in the testing session for reading (dyslexia), math (dyscalculia), migraines , computer stress, and light sensitivity.  Environmental modifications and accommodations can create increased benefits and greater levels of improvement and functional performance.  Documentation of symptoms and benefits may be used for specific IEP, 504, and ADA accommodation plans.
