To the best of my knowledge, there is no one in Leicester city with a full
set of instruments for investigating the behaviour of the eyes 'at near,' or
with a colorimeter.
Farmilo of 53 Frances Street (0116 270 0044) will supply coloured overlays,
though I don't know what kind of screening they do. I use the Institute of
Optometry/Wilkins 'rate of reading' test and give people A4 overlays.
For full investigation, usually recommend Clinton-Smith & Warren in Market
Harborough (01858 462061) and Mrs Jill Gratton at Dollond & Aitchison in
Nottingham (0115 950 6665).

Hi
Can anyone recommend an optometrist in the Leicester area who is able to
investigate the type of visual confusion often associated with dyslexia?
Any suggestions gratefully received.
