Helen Irlen identified a syndrome defined as 'scotopic sensitivity' which it was claimed could be responsible for the inability of some people to read fluently and the symptoms of which could be ameliorated by the wearing of prescribed coloured lenses. The literature to date presents a confused and inconsistent picture concerning the use of the lenses. The literature (much of which is unpublished and difficult to obtain) is critically reviewed. Recent experimental evaluations of the lenses do not support the use of the lenses as a useful intervention for children with reading disabilities.
海伦·厄伦识别出一种被定义为“暗适应敏感性”的综合征,据称该综合征可能是一些人无法流畅阅读的原因,而佩戴特制的有色眼镜可以缓解其症状。迄今为止的文献对于这种眼镜的使用呈现出一幅混乱且不一致的图景。本文对相关文献(其中许多未发表且难以获取)进行了批判性综述。近期对这种眼镜的实验评估并不支持将其作为对阅读障碍儿童的有效干预手段。
