Avec la lampe LILI, utilisez la projection d'un flux lumineux aux caractéristiques spécifiques pour améliorer “l’entrée” visuelle, d’améliorer les voies dites d'assemblage et d'adressage (appelées aussi respectivement voie phonologique et voie lexico-sémantique / lexicale). Cela permet ainsi à la personne dyslexique (enfant comme adulte) de libérer toutes ses capacités cognitives pour les autres processus inhérents à la lecture (habiletés phonologiques, déchiffrage, …) pour ensuite arriver à la compréhension en mobilisant son vocabulaire, ses compétences grammaticales, sa mémoire de travail, etc.
