Individuals with "scotopic sensitivity syndrome" have been reported to have visual symptoms including eye strain, headaches, blurred vision, double vision and words moving on the page. This study was designed to investigate Irlen's claims that these symptoms are unrelated to vision anomalies. She suggests that the use of Irlen tinted lenses/filters relieves these symptoms and results in improved reading performance. Thirty nine subjects (age 10-49) were recruited by advertising for a study of Irlen Filters/Lenses. Before the Irlen screening all subjects received an optometric examination. The results of this study demonstrate that 95 percent of the subjects identified as candidates for Irlen Filters did have significant and readily identifiable vision anomalies. Fifty seven percent of the subjects had received vision care within the past year, yet testing revealed that 90 percent of these subjects had significant vision problems that had not been corrected.
据报道，患有“暗适应敏感综合征”的人会出现视觉症状，包括眼疲劳、头痛、视力模糊、复视以及书页上的文字移动。本研究旨在调查艾琳的说法，即这些症状与视力异常无关。她认为使用艾琳有色镜片/滤光片可以缓解这些症状，并提高阅读能力。通过招募广告，三十九名受试者（年龄在10 - 49岁之间）参与了一项关于艾琳滤光片/镜片的研究。在进行艾琳筛查之前，所有受试者都接受了验光检查。这项研究的结果表明，被确定为艾琳滤光片适用对象的受试者中，95%确实存在明显且易于识别的视力异常。57%的受试者在过去一年中接受过视力护理，但测试显示，这些受试者中有90%存在尚未得到矫正的严重视力问题。
