The Small Highlight Strip Blue is a valuable teaching resource when teaching children to read. Many find that the highlight strip reduces squinting, red/watery eyes.
In our experience, the yellow is more popular in that it's the one opted for by the kids (during tutoring) when asked if a colour makes the print easier to read.
Prof John Stein (a Professor of Neuroscience who has devoted much of his research life to studying the magnocellular pathways in the brain and Dyslexia) says that his team's research shows statistically significant improvement in reading when visual dyslexics use yellow coloured lenses (and if the yellow didn't help the blue would).
We find in tutoring that the Small Highlight Strips are great for keeping attention on one line at a time. The Large Highlight Strips are good as readers can see more at once yet the edge around the bottom is handy to keep them on track (and it is easily slid down the page as they progress). If you are looking for full page coverage then we stock full page highlight strips.
