"Dyslexia
is a type of reading disability
usually manifested as a difficulty with written language,
particularly with reading and
spelling.
Evidence suggests that it is a result of a difference in how
the brain
processes written and/or verbal language. It
is separate and distinct from reading difficulties resulting
from other causes, such as deficiencies in intelligence,
non-neurological deficiency with vision or hearing, or from
poor or inadequate reading instruction." Source:
