I was surprised to see the use of colored overlays in a discussion about 
dyslexia.

I was first introduced to their use in the 80s.  The Irlen Institute was 
screening people for something called scotopic sensitivity and they would 
advise on the appropriate colored glasses or transparency to help alleviate the 
problems of light on white paper that caused reading problems for some people.

I just looked at their website(below)and it does look like they have broadened 
the use.
