Opti-Colour

Helps to reduce the effects of:
  1. Text appearing very thin with grey around the letters.
  2. Text wobbling on the page so that it is difficult to focus clearly.
  3. Rivers of white flowing down through a block of text that distract the reader.
  4. Problems tracking what is being read. Requiring the need to follow with a finger or use a ruler under the line being read.
  5. Getting to the end of a sentence and not knowing what it was about.
  6. Not recognising words because they have not been seen clearly when read before.
