Abstract

This work investigates patterns of pupil diameter variation during text reading based on the effects of Meares-Irlen Syndrome (MIS) using eye tracking information to estimate the mental workload required. The results show that there is an increase in the mental workload at times when the texts presented had greater intensity of visual distortion and that it is possible to linearly classify the data by multivariate statistical techniques, disclosing experimentally the implicit difficulty in such reading context.
