Frequently Bought Together

Transform reading from a struggle into a success with these Colored Reading Overlays . This simple yet highly effective piece of low-cost assistive technology is designed to support NDIS participants with Dyslexia, Irlen Syndrome (Visual Stress), ADHD, or Autism.

For many people, the high contrast of black text on bright white paper causes "visual stress." Words may appear to move, blur, or wash out, leading to eye strain, headaches, and reading fatigue. These tinted overlays act as a filter, reducing the glare and changing the contrast to a level the brain can process more easily.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

Alleviating Visual Stress (Irlen Syndrome): By filtering out specific wavelengths of light, these overlays stabilize the text. This stops words from "swimming" or "jumping" on the page, allowing for smoother, continuous reading.

Improving Reading Fluency (Dyslexia): Reducing visual distortions helps the user track lines better. This increases reading speed and comprehension, supporting educational goals and workplace participation.

Reducing Sensory Overload (Autism/ADHD): The overlays dampen the harsh glare of white paper, which can be visually overstimulating. This helps maintain focus and attention for longer periods without exhaustion.

Personalized Support: Every brain is different. The sets include 6 distinct colours (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Pink, Orange), allowing the participant to test and find the specific hue that works best for their visual processing needs.

Key Features & Benefits

Three Size Options: Available in A4 (full page), A5 (half page/notebook), and A6 (pocket size), ensuring the right fit for textbooks, novels, or worksheets.
6-Colour System: Includes a variety of tints to ensure the user can find their optimal colour match for reducing visual stress.
Crystal Clear Clarity: Made from high-quality PVC with a removable protective film to ensure the view is scratch-free and distortion-free.
Customizable: The material is durable yet thin enough to be cut with scissors, making it easy to create custom reading strips for phones or specific columns.
Portable & Discreet: Lightweight and easy to slip into a book or bag, providing discreet support in classrooms, libraries, or offices.
