Easy to Read Font
OpenDyslexic is a new open sourced font created by a dyslexic designer, and is being updated continually and improved based on input from other dyslexic users.
Letters have heavy weighted bottoms to indicate direction. You are able to quickly figure out which part of the letter is down which aids in recognizing the correct letter, and sometimes helps to keep your brain from rotating them around. The unique shapes of each letter can help prevent confusion through flipping and swapping.
