Ever since he can remember, Daniel Britton faced a daily battle at school.

'I was diagnosed when I was young as a partial-dyslexic, but no one understood it,' the 25-year-old told DailyMail.com

'I remember when I was eight-years-old, all I got was try harder, read harder, you're lazy, you're stupid, you're thick'.

Now a successful graphic designer, Britton has found a way to convey those feelings of frustration using his own font, dubbed Dyslexia.

Can you read this? It says: 'This typography is not designed to recreate what it would be like to read to read if you were dyslexic it is designed to simulate the feeling of reading with dyslexia by slowing the reading time of the viewer down to a speed of which someone who has dyslexia would read'

Using Helvetica as a base, the Dyslexia font removes around 40 per of the typeface's lines.

The aim is to make the average reader take their time when attempting to decipher the letters in the words and sentences.

According to Britton, while it isn't based on hard science, the typeface slows down someone reading it to the speed of someone with dyslexia reading normal font.

It wasn't until his last year as a student at the London School of Communications, that Britton was diagnosed with full dyslexia.

Daniel Britton, a 25-year-old designer from Hartley in Kent, created the 'Dyslexia' font to convey the emotion behind having the condition to those who find it difficult to understand

According to Britton, while it isn't based on hard science, the typeface provides a similar level of frustration than that which a dyslexic person experiences when reading everyday typography

When Britton told his classmates and teachers about his diagnosis, most couldn't fathom how difficult everyday life was for him.

He developed the font, not to recreate the visual experience of dyslexia, but convey the emotion behind it.

'I think the promotional material for dyslexia is awful,' he said.

'It doesn't convey anything. It conveys no emotion, and no message. People don't understand it because graphically there is no bridge.'

THE LINK BETWEEN POOR VISION AND DYSLEXIA IS 'UNLIKELY', SAYS STUDY Correcting vision problems in children with dyslexia is unlikely to have any effect on the condition, new research has shown. In the first study of its kind, scientists found no evidence that visual deficiencies are linked to severe cases of 'word blindness'. The results call into question the value of common private treatments that can cost parents thousands. The scientists analysed the results of eye tests conducted on 5,822 seven and eight-year-olds. Each child was given a reading assessment at age nine which revealed that 3 per cent had severe and 8 per cent moderate dyslexia. The results were compared with those from 5,650 other children of the same age whose reading ability was normal. More than 80 per cent of the dyslexic children showed no evidence of a vision problem, the researchers found. Advertisement

'I needed to stimulate and recreate the frustration, the embarrassment and the outright effort it is to read the daily type.'

Britton did more than just that – he also landed himself a job based on his designs.

His professor happened to know someone in Parliament who oversaw the local commission on raising dyslexia awareness, which is the group Britton now works for.

'Reaction has been fantastic,' said Britton. 'I showed it to a few friends first. They saw it, and they were like, what on Earth is that? Then, I explained it and they were like 'I get it now.'

'That's all I wanted to achieve; that light bulb moment.'
