irlen syndrome

A message from Missouri

A message from Missouri

"Thank you for all you have done to help us. My son absolutely loves his Migratech lenses. He said it took a few hours to adjust but then everything became more crisp and defined. The fatigue he experienced due to his dyslexia is no longer an issue. He is thrilled with the difference these glasses make. Sincerely-Terri"

That has given me the biggest smile I've had this week.

The downside of Irlens

We've had a sad story told to us by a woman who found us through the Internet.  Her daughter has Irlen Syndrome and she has to wear coloured lenses to read.  Because of this she's been subjected to bullying at school and the experience has left her unwilling to read and also having to be taught at home for the time being.

She's coming into our Ellesmere Port branch on Saturday for an eye test and to see if our clear Migratech lenses will help her read without having to use coloured lenses.  

So she can go back to school and start enjoying reading again.

 

 

Going the extra 3,000 miles

OK - so why a map of Missouri? Quite simple really.

We had an email message from a mother who read about our special lenses that could help her son who has Irlen Syndrome. This means he has to use coloured lenses to read and work - but being 19 he's a bit self-conscious of doing so. So the mother asked if we could provide him with our special lenses that are - incidentally - clear (so they do the same job but look just like normal glasses).

The only problem? You guessed it - they live in Missouri.

No problem - because we're Specs2U. They're sending his old frame over together with his prescription. We're going to fit the new lenses in and send them back. And he'll hopefully never need to wear coloured lenses again!

Would your optician do that?
