Many ME/CFS patients suffer from some degree of blurred vision. This blurred vision is not due to having the wrong prescription of glasses or contact lenses, but likely due to some ill health effects in the retina or eye lenses, or perhaps in the optic nerve or the visual processing areas of the brain. (There does not seem to be much research on this).
Blurred vision will often cause halos or starburst effects around bright lights at night, and may make it harder to read text on screen.
This poll is for all ME/CFS patients, whether you have blurred vision or not: it simply asks which of two samples of text you find easier to read: Text 1 or Text 2.
These two text samples can be found on THIS WEBPAGE.
The only difference between these two samples of text is the spacing between the letters: in Text 2 the letters are slightly more spaced apart compared to Text 1. So this is a poll to find out which letter spacing you find easier or more comfortable to read.
Please also post any relevant comments about the readability of these two text samples.
I'd be interested to know whether you found a noticeable difference in readability between Text 1 and Text 2, or if you found that there was very little difference.
If for any reason you cannot view the above webpage, the same text samples are also attached as images to this post. (As different computers will render the same text slightly differently, I have attached 3 screenshots of the text samples, as they look on Windows 10, Apple Mac and Android).
