Reading is not a trivial task, which involves several cognitive aspects and mechanisms in order to identify letter and words and their meaning. An important mechanism is the appropriate eye movements. Studies have identified eye movement coordination differences in Dyslexic children and adults. Several strategies have been proposed and used aiming to reduce and minimize reading and writin…

Introduction: Postural changes are common impairments in Parkinson's disease (PD). Although pharmacological treatment is the most used for rehabilitation in people with PD, impairments in postural control are unresponsive to this treatment. Therefore, complementary therapies have been targeted in rehabilitation research for people with PD. Evidence suggests that physical exercise and tran…
Reading is not a trivial task, which involves several cognitive aspects and mechanisms in order to identify letter and words. An important mechanism is the appropriate eye movements. Several strategies have been proposed and used aiming to reduce and minimize reading and writing difficulties in dyslexic children. Recently, we have demonstrated that the use of a green overlay improved read…

Dyslexic children, in addition to having difficulty in reading and writing, also have poor postural control performance. Recent studies suggest that dyslexic children show poor oculomotor performance that might affect behavioral performance. The goal of this study will investigate the effect of eye movement in different visual tasks in postural control in dyslexic children. Twenty dyslexi…
