Reply to: “The relationship between eye movements and reading difficulties”, Blythe, Kirkby & Liversedge

Abstract

This is my response to the critique by Blythe et al. of my review ‘What is Developmental Dyslexia?’. In this response, I provide greater detail about the evidence supporting the view that faulty eye movement control can cause dyslexics’ visual reading difficulties and that impaired development of the visual magnocellular system may be the underlying cause.
