The prognosis of dyslexia is difficult to predict because an individual
child’s outcome depends on a number of factors: the severity of the
child’s language difficulties; the stage at which the dyslexia is diagnosed;
the supportiveness of the child’s family; the presence of other health problems;
and the quality of supplemental teaching and tutoring that the
child receives. Many people with dyslexia, however, do achieve personal
and professional success; some go on to complete advanced degrees while
others do well in such fields as business and the performing arts.
