To help you see, feel, and BE your best!

💚🩷💙🩵💛

SOME people need glasses to see clearly.

OTHERS need Irlen filters to think, feel, and function clearly.

Why??

When someone has Irlen Syndrome it means their brain is overstimulated by light and color, it’s not just a “bad mood” or “being sensitive.”

🧠 It can shut down focus
😣 Trigger headaches or migraines
😤 Amp up irritability
😵‍💫 Leave you feeling totally drained

Take a self-test to see if Irlen custom-colored filters could be the missing puzzle piece.

🧠 Did you know that color interpretation doesn’t happen in your eyes? It actually happens in your brain. 🤯

Your eyes collect the light, but it’s your brain that decides what you’re actually seeing.

For those with brain injuries, or visual processing issues, light triggered migraines, ADHD etc…
this system can get overwhelmed — leading to light sensitivity, reading problems, headaches, and more.

👓 That’s why Irlen custom -color filters aren’t just glasses — they’re brain support tools!!!!

We’re here to help!

Why is your child's vision so important?
80% of children’s learning is done visually. Reading, writing, whiteboard work, and computers are all hard going if you cannot see clearly. Having clear, comfortable vision is necessary for a child to learn successfully. So many of the day to day learning tasks at school require seeing and processing visual information quickly.
Book a comprehensive eye examination with Shattky Optometrists to make sure your child is seeing clearly.
