Dyslexia is one of those things that you can’t understand the complexities of if you don’t have it. I have many people close to me who are dyslexic and know that it can be a real challenge to deal with, even though I have never particularly been able to grasp why.

After spending some time with Dsxyliea, it’s become quite obvious.

A javascript experiment designed to emulate what it’s like reading with dyslexia, Dsxyliea gives a fascinating, although not entirely accurate, insight. Dyslexia is different from person-to-person, so it can’t ever be 100% accurate.

Nevertheless, the program highlights some of the more common issues that dyslexia brings when it comes to reading. Words jump around the page and the letters constantly change positions, making each sentence a real slog. If you’ve ever wanted an inkling about what dyslexia is like, be sure to check out the website.

Millions of people around the world are dyslexic, so let’s hope this intriguing goes some way towards helping people understand it as dyslexia is still not legitimate in the eyes of many.
