The Wilkins Rate of Reading Test can measure the changes in reading ability that result from the use of coloured overlays, lenses and other treatments.

Test performance depends upon visual skills that are not measured by conventional optometric or educational tests.

The test can be undertaken by dyslexic children whose reading is poor.

The test is reliable, quick and simple to administer. It can be administered repeatedly, for example with and without a coloured overlay.

It is supplied in a presentation folder with a pad of record sheets, detailed instructions and test sheets of text.
