Strokes often result in difficulties with visual focus and tracking, which would make it difficult to read long documents. Visual therapy is a branch of optometry that seeks to address these types of challenges through what is essentially physical therapy for the eyes.<p>There is also software that can help with visual tracking when reading, including the tools developed by my startup. [1] We were actually unaware of the benefits our tools would have for stroke survivors until we heard from them.<p>1: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.beelinereader.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.beelinereader.com</a>

You&#x27;re going to need to explain in what manner and to what extent the victim is experiencing difficulty.<p>Its possible to have had a stroke and not experience any long term effects.

I am lucky enough to have not have needed such software. However, this also means I can’t vouch for much of this first hand for your use case.<p>Dasher is designed for text input with limited movement. You can try it out online: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inference.org.uk&#x2F;dasher&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.inference.org.uk&#x2F;dasher&#x2F;</a>

I&#x27;m working on a Chrome Extension that lets you open tabs, navigate pages, click links, dictate emails etc. on the web using voice-control: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lipsurf.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lipsurf.com</a><p>Many of my users have motor control issues. Depending on the manner of the difficulty, I think this will be useful to you.
