Research has shown that some people find reading difficult because of unstable eye movements, which make tracking text very difficult.
Quite often people have problems with excessive glare when reading black print on white background. These problems can sometimes (not always) be alleviated by using coloured overlays, coloured paper or even wearing glasses with tinted lenses. The best colour to use depends on the individual.
The VST has been designed to follow the scientific research behind this phenomenon. It is a systematically controlled test to find out:
- How much an individual can improve their reading speed with the use of a coloured overlay
- Which colour is most suitable for the individual.
