Wilkins Rate of Reading™ Test

Item # CWRT

Description:

Wilkins Rate of Reading™ Test

The use of color to alleviate distortion when reading has been available for some years.

In England, it used to be that the College of Optometry recommended an overlay be used successfully for a school term to eliminate the possibility of placebo effect before referral to optometrists for colorimetry and Cerium Precision Tinted™ Lenses.

It is now accepted that patients using overlays, tested using the Wilkins Rate of Reading™ Test and showing a 10% or greater improvement in reading speed during the test do not require this period of overlay use before referral.

The Willkins Rate of Reading™ Test is not a measure of cognitive ability or intelligence but compares the effects of reading simple words with and without overlays. The patient is simply required to read words aloud while reading time and errors are noted. Reading speed can be measured quickly and efficiently when randomly ordered common words are read aloud for one minute. The words are high frequency and therefore familiar to poor readers. The random word order means that the words can not be guessed from context but have to be seen to be read. The text is meaningless so readers are unaware of their errors. The text is small to increase fatigue.

Comes as a testing pack with full instructions and test equipment.
