What i have been told is that if one in the family has Irlen then you best
be looking around at the rest of your family ther ewill be at least 1 or so
more all of us have it in my family, my husband and i both have it as well
as both of our children, oh and my mother too has iren as well she is going
for her glasses soon too.

* my glasses are golden yellow and medium blue my oldest daughter has deep
purple purple grey and deep blue for her indoor glasses for her out dooor
glasses she has another 20 tints to me the color looks like mud but they
work well for her. My youngets has teal blue medium blue and orange.*
**
*Now you know you have Irlen you will be able to recognize the symptoms in
your children and they won't suffer like you did. I know it took me about 7
years of fighting with the school system to get them to help us, so when i
moved them out of public school and put them in a reserve school right away
they brought in the specialists that helped my girl and from there the rest
of us got the help we needed.*

* Who was your diagnostician? we have seen Val Rizok in Dauphin and Bev Butt
in Regina both are great to work with and both i would trust.*
