We did not really begin to understand dyslexia until about 25 years ago. And up until 10-15 years ago school children were not regularly screened for the condition... or were not screened at all. And so the 10% of the population who are dyslexic and finished elementary school before screening began have never been tested or diagnosed.

We did not really begin to understand dyslexia until about 25 years ago. And up until 10-15 years ago school children were not regularly screened for the condition... or were not screened at all. And so the 10% of the population who are dyslexic and finished elementary school before screening began have never been tested or diagnosed.

It is estimated that 90-95% of adult dyslexics have never gone through dyslexia testing and are unaware of the reason for their differences. Most learned to hide their condition and became "closet dyslexics" without even knowing what dyslexia really was.

There are two type of adult dyslexia testing, one is screening tests and the other is comprehensive tests. Screening tests are usually done in a group of patients or students to determine if they have reading disability. Collecting preliminary information on the nature of reading problem and determine if a complete diagnostic is needed. Comprehensive dyslexia text on the other hand is a thorough evaluation of the severity of the symptoms and the causes of dyslexia.

If you suspected that you have dyslexia it is important that you undergo a series of adult dyslexia testing to know the severity of your symptoms. Dyslexia is a genetic condition that needs to be tested for you to know the best way to treat and cope with your condition.

Dyslexia if ignored may lead to the destructive effects of losing self confidence and low self-esteem. The disabling effects of dyslexia can be corrected and can be overcome if given the necessary treatment, thus adult dyslexia testing is important.
