Did you know??? The overlap between ADHD and Irlen Syndrome in approximately 30% of individuals is likely due to shared sensory processing challenges and their impact on attention and behavior.
Irlen symptoms can be mistaken for ADHD (e.g., distractibility from visual discomfort). This overlap might inflate perceived co-occurrence rates if Irlen isn’t recognized independently.
The visual strain of Irlen can worsen focus and self-regulation, particularly in those with ADHD, compounding their symptoms.
Addressing both conditions is crucial, as treating one without considering the other may leave residual challenges.
