Abstracts/Annual Meeting Publications Full size image available below Dyslexia and Language Brain Areas The learning disability dyslexia, which centers on difficulties in reading, once stumped scientists. Since dyslexics often have good intelligence and even may be gifted in some areas, it was thought that a little motivation could get them on the right track. Now researchers not only know that dyslexia is born of biology, but they also are getting closer to confirming the key brain areas that are affected. New insights will help pinpoint therapies and improve treatment. Albert Einstein was a genius. And a dyslexic. The fact that the reading disability, dyslexia - often marked by deficits in the decoding of words - can affect smart people, even some famously knowledgeable, once perplexed scientists. Many assumed that laziness was the cause. Now research confirms that more than a kick in the butt is needed to jumpstart dyslexics' stall in reading. Studies show a biological basis for this disability that affects millions of American children and adults. One line of research indicates that dyslexics use the brain regions that process written language differently than those without the disorder. New advances are leading to: Earlier diagnosis and treatment of dyslexia.

ADD/ADHD Vision, Learning and Dyslexia A joint organizational policy statement of the American Academy of Optometry and the American Optometric Association Many children and adults continue to struggle with learning in the classroom and the workplace. Advances in information technology, its expanding necessity, and its accessibility are placing greater demands on people for efficient learning and information processing. Learning is accomplished through complex and interrelated processes, one of which is vision. Determining the relationships between vision and learning involves more than evaluating eye health and visual acuity (clarity of sight). Problems in identifying and treating people with learning-related vision problems arise when such a limited definition of vision is employed. This policy statement addresses these issues, which are important to individuals who have learning-related vision problems (such as dyslexia), their families, their teachers, the educational system and society. Policy Statement People at risk for learning-related vision problems should receive a comprehensive optometric evaluation. This evaluation should be conducted as part of a multidisciplinary approach in which all appropriate areas of function are evaluated and managed.

PHIL PONCE: Now, there's been new research that people with dyslexia actually have different patterns of brain activity than people who are good readers. To explain those findings and their implications, we're joined by Dr. Sally Shaywitz, lead author of the study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences DR. SALLY SHAYWITZ: Well, since dyslexia was first described over a hundred years ago, we've learned a great deal about reading and reading difficulties, in particular, we've learned that in order to learn to read a child must develop an awareness that the spoken word is made of smaller units of sounds, and that letters represents these sounds. Based on this knowledge, we examined two groups of people: a group of good readers and a group of dyslexia readers. And we found significant differences in brain activation patterns as each of these individuals performed a series of reading tasks.
