“…Visual processing disorders cause a series of symptoms and signs 15,16 , either isolated or in comorbidity with development disorders, as in dyslexia 17,18 , attention deficit hyperactivity disorder 19 , Tourette syndrome, and autism spectrum disorder 20 . The treatment with colored overlays and filters improves reading performance and reduces the prescription of medications inpatients whose restlessness and lack of attention result from avoidance behavior due to symptoms of visual stress adaptation to varied lighting conditions 15,[21][22][23][24][25] .…”

Purpose: to verify whether students screened with altered auditory temporal processing are more likely to present altered visual processing. Methods: the sample consisted of 68 children, aged from 9 to 12 years, 53% males, from the 5th and 6th grades of a public school. All children with alterations in the audiological or ophthalmological evaluation were excluded. The Duration Pattern Test (screening for auditory temporal skill), the Reading Perceptual Scale (visual stress symptom questionnaire and colored overlays selection) and the Rate of Reading Test (number of words correctly read per minute) were used. Appropriate statistical tests were applied adopting the significance level lower than 0.05. Results: participants screened with abnormal auditory processing had higher visual stress symptoms and lower reading rate, with a significant and moderate effect (p< 0.05; d< 0.71), when compared to their peers with normal auditory processing. Among the children with altered Duration Pattern Test, 58% improved the reading rate with the use of colored overlays, whereas 29% did so in the control group (Odds Ratio = 3.4, p = 0.017). Conclusion: children screened with altered auditory temporal processing presented a three times higher possibility of association with visual processing alterations, due to shared magnocellular system.

“…A SMIé uma deficiência na capacidade visual-perceptiva humana que causa a desorganização das informações captadas pelos olhos e distorções no processamento destas informações pelo córtex visual [7]. Essa deficiência prejudica várias habilidades humanas dependentes da visão, tais como ler, escrever, dirigir veículos e praticar esportes.…”

This work investigates reading patterns based on effects of the Meares-Irlen Syndrome (SMI), a visual-perception deﬁcit that affects indirectly our cognitive system. The most common symptoms related to SMI in reading tasks are visual stress, sensation of moving letters and distortions in the text. These effects have been computationally simulated here and using eye-tracking information of a number of participants we have been able to linearly classify each effects with high accuracy.

“…A SMI pode ser definida como um déficit na capacidade visual-perceptiva, revelada na década de 80 por Olive Meares e definida em 1983 por Helen Irlen, responsável por causar problemas na aquisição das informações luminosas pelos olhos, causando um mal processamento dessas informações (SOARES; GONTIJO, 2016). Esse déficit prejudica várias habilidades visuais humanas, tais como ler, escrever, dirigir automóveis e praticar esportes.…”
