Visual Stress

Visual stress symptoms vary from person to person. Sufferers may assume that the following symptoms are experienced by everyone. However, these are not ‘the norm’. These can include:

  • Child finds pages too bright
  • Eyes get sore when reading
  • Headaches during/after reading (including migraines)
  • Print moving or blurring
  • Non existent patterns appear on the page
  • Tiredness when reading

Any number or combinations of symptoms can be present. These may occur immediately or after a longer spell of reading.
