Colored overlays may help children with autism to read better.
This study was designed to see if children with autism would read faster if they read through glasses with colored lenses. Blue or yellow overlays were used in the study. The authors found that colored overlays helped when the color of the overlay was chosen by its ability to help the child to read words. In the study, 38% of children with autism read more than 25% faster using the colored overlays. The authors do not know how the overlays are able to help the children to read faster.
