Treatment Options and Recovery
There have been many different studies done in an attempt to treat deep dyslexics, all which have been met with varying success. One method that has been frequently used is to teach patients to sound out words using grapheme-to-phoneme correspondence rules. Such methods are known as non-lexically based reading treatments. Other studies have looked at attempting to repair the semantic-lexical route, known as lexically based treatment. Regardless of the methodology, treatment studies with deep dyslexics are difficult because much of the information regarding this disability is still heavily debated. Treatment options may be successful on repairing one route of reading but not another, and success for one patient may not translate to success in another. Although there is no clear-cut approach to recovery for deep dyslexics, research is ongoing.
