🔍 ABOUT

OpenDyslexic is a free, open-source font designed to make reading easier for people with dyslexia. This extension replaces all fonts on web pages with the OpenDyslexic font, helping to make content more readable.

Sometimes, our brains can play tricks on us, making letters seem jumbled or rotated. OpenDyslexic helps by giving each letter a heavier bottom, adding a sense of "gravity" that keeps them grounded. This unique feature helps you quickly identify the correct orientation of each letter, making reading smoother and more enjoyable.

The distinct shapes of the letters also help prevent confusion and swapping, making it easier to follow the text without getting mixed up.

Thank you so much for making this. I cannot stress enough how necessary this is for me, as a college student dealing with a required online textbook that uses an atrociously vague font. Making this free and accessible to all, especially with the extra bold feature, is such a helpful public service to those with visual processing disabilities and/or dyslexia <3
