But as I'm personal not dyslectic (as far as I know ), I have hardly any rights to make conclusions. Better a real dyslectic can share his/her thoughts on this issue.
For what it may be worth, I worked in an education environment for quite a while. None of the dyslexic children managed to instinctively make their own choices for a comfortable reading environment.

What we did find was the OpenDyslexic and Dyslexie were snake oil. Dyslexie is the worst offender since they charge to use the font but over all a simple sans serif font was the best choice we could find.

Hmmm.... does the use of dyslectic instead of dyslexic perhaps indicate an British origin?
