Lili for Life has unveiled Lili Screen, a 27-inch computer monitor specifically designed to help people with dyslexia read digital text more easily.
The screen comes with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, an IPS panel, and a refresh rate of 75 Hz, and is offered for pre-order at a price of 599 euros, with deliveries starting in January 2026.
Lili Screen is an extension of the company’s previous experience with the Lili+ Lamp, which aimed to improve the reading of printed texts. The new design allows the screen to be connected to the computer via HDMI or USB-C, and then the backlight adjustment rate can be adjusted through a custom application, to suit the needs of each user.
Dyslexia cases suffer from physiological differences in the visual system that lead to the appearance of mirror images of texts and visual distortions that hinder following lines and reading words accurately. Prominent among these differences are what are known as Maxwell centers, which are areas in the retina devoid of blue light receptors and located in the fovea responsible for the clearest vision.
Normally, the center of the dominant eye is circular, while the center of the non-dominant eye is oval.
Although the exact mechanism is still not fully understood, the difference in Maxwell centers usually helps the brain distinguish images coming from each eye thanks to the difference in the subsequent visual trace. As for people with dyslexia, images of texts appear in reverse, which confuses the reading process.
In addition, studies show that eye fixation when reading is straight and stable in normal people, while it becomes distracted in people with dyslexia, which increases reading time and difficulty in understanding.
The problem is exacerbated by ambient noise, as noise levels significantly affect the ability to concentrate while reading. Research suggests that a relatively low level of ambient noise, about 52 decibels, may be enough to completely disrupt text comprehension in people with dyslexia, compared to a less severe effect in others.
The Lili Screen relies on pulsating backlight adjustment technology, which aims to break the phenomenon of text reflection and reset the visual system, in a way similar to displaying black frames between scenes, as in some motion processing techniques in televisions.
Although more research is needed to understand the exact mechanism of this technology, Lili for Life confirms that its new screen is capable of making reading digital texts easier and more comfortable for those with dyslexia.
