If your still at school and they have recognized your having trouble with learning, then they should be able to organize for you to be tested by a Educational Psychologist, who will do a full assessment of reading, writing, spelling, memory skills, maths etc.

A normal optometrist generally cannot test for dyslexia, unless they have accreditation and certified as dyslexic trained.

Irlens as suggested by beetlemilk, is excellent in testing for testing for dyslexia, as is a Educational Psychologist.
