Simulation shows how dyslexia makes reading very difficult

Software developer Victor Widdell has created a simulation that attempts to show how reading is so difficult for people with dyslexia. His simulation is based on the experience of a friend who says that the letters jump around when she tries to read.

The simulation isn’t exact; there isn’t a way to capture it exactly since many people experience dyslexia differently. Still, looking at the simulation will give you a little insight into what it’s like to struggle so hard with a task that comes so easily for the rest of us.

Be prepared for a headache when you watch it!
