Attention Consumers : Irlen Lenses Step Down AS There Are New And Better Dyslexia Glasses In Town
(ContentDesk) April 7, 2006 -- Until recently the most popular dyslexia glasses in the US have been Irlen Tinted Lenses. These were based on the concept that each visual dyslexic's problems were caused by a color unique to that dyslexic and therefore required an expensive personal evaluation to determine that color. A major problem to the consumer with that concept was that because most of the cost involved the evaluation which was received there could not be an effective guarantee. Combine that with a high failure rate and you have a product that is expensive to try with no guarantee of success. The quality standard for success in this method was also low because as soon as a client said this color is better than that one success could be claimed.A different approach and concept was needed .If different colors effected different dyslexics then couldn't it be that the dyslexics were sensitive to several colors and the Irlen Method could only find the color that effected that dyslexic...

Bet You Didn?t Know . . . All Waters Are Not Created Equal
Water fortifies our systems and our cells. Without it, we couldn't survive. And it has been linked to many health benefits, from removing toxins from the system to improving brain function. Those 8 to 12 glasses of water a day are certainly critical . .
. but if the water we drink isn't "clean," we're not doing our bodies much good. Contaminants, from chlorine to aluminum, in our tap water supply have caused many consumers to abandon their taps for bottled water. But bottled waters have their own hazards. The acidic pH in many plastic bottled waters causes the plastic to leach into the water, particularly if the bottles have been sitting in a warehouse for a long time.
It's important to drink waters that have a pH of 7.0 and higher, and preferably housed in glass bottles or safer plastics such as PET or PETE. Here are some excellent spring and artesian water choices: Mountain Valley Spring Water, VOSS Artesian Water, Fiji Natural Artesian Spring Water, Trinity Spring Water....

The Magic Of Laser Vision Correction
It almost seems surreal. You walk into your doctor's office wearing your glasses or contact lenses, you receive numbing drops, and within a few minutes, your vision has been restored to what it was when you were 20 years old. You can walk out of the doctors' surgery in half an hour, leaving your contacts and glasses behind! With Lasik vision correction most people can say goodbye to glasses forever.It's amazing to imagine that a cool laser can actually change the shape of the cornea in your eyes. However that's just what it does. The doctor will lift a small microscopic flap from your cornea and direct the laser beam to actually reshape the cornea so that light can be reflected more effectively.
What this does is allow the eye to see properly again, eliminating the need for glasses or contacts.Laser vision correction is very popular among actors who don't like to be seen on screen wearing glasses. It is also a very common procedure for sports people and athletes, particularly...
