Also Dyslexia is nothing to do with Bionic reading which alleges to speed regular reading. I think you are thinking of the Open Dyslexic font, which was a cute art project with no scientific basis.

Helvetica Neue is a good font for dyslexia. It has good spacing, good letter forms, and it's sans-serif.
