Description from store Version 2.0.5: Add link to upgraded visor-plus. Version 2.0.4: Bug-fixes and updated style. As well as being a great general purpose screen dimmer, Visor's overlays and point of focus feature may be assistive to users with visual perceptual difficulties such as Dyslexia, Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome and Visual Stress. Whilst research shows results vary from person to person, some users may find that the use of overlays can help with fluency, eye-strain, concentration and comprehension whilst reading. In addition to the traditional overlay method, Visor also employs a point of focus feature, designed to further reduce visual confusions and the tendency to skip lines. This horizontal focal point tracks your mouse, giving full focus to the content being read, whilst reducing the visual noise of the surrounding page. Visor requires no special permissions, so must be reactivated with each page load. Note: This extension will not work on Chrome's start page, options pages or the Chrome web store. This is a restriction of chrome. Blue polygonal background designed by Freepik.com

(2021-07-27) Sentastra: did not work
(2021-06-05) João Teixeira: Hey Michael, as of now the extension stopped working, whats wrong? It was working a while ago...
(2021-02-26) Mich EXO-L: Sería bueno que se activara para todas las páginas abiertas del navegador, tengo que hacerlo manual en cada página cada vez que abro otra y así, Sería maravilloso si agregaran esa opción!!!
(2021-02-18) Taelor roz: It worked pretty well but after the start of this semester, every time I try to move the bar as I read, it either stays in the middle of the screen or gets stuck on the very top of the page, where the menu bar on most websites sits.
(2020-11-27) Brisa Gassmann - Grupo 1: Es muy útil para personas que se no se logran concentrar fácil, como yo. Ayuda a enfocar la vista en determinado punto de lo que se quiera leer, la verdad es que me sorprendí con lo bien que funciona.
(2020-09-09) Carolina Alvarez: It works great but not on pdfs opened in the browser. The extension still kinda works but the highlighted portion doesn't move with my cursor, this problem only happens with pdfs and embedded documents.
(2020-09-03) Ricardo Csilva: Ok
(2020-07-12) 曾宪法: I can't understant why the part that should be emphasized changes too.

(2020-02-10) Jen Ridge: The visor follows your mouse it cannot be set at one height. Annoying. Other than that it was great idea.
(2020-01-23) T0BBG: I doesn't do anything to my display...
(2020-01-23) Belen Rojas: para q sirve?
(2019-11-02) Tota Mia: fine
(2019-03-27) dadapotok: it just works. Best readability extension that I know. The only one I use apart from Vivaldi browser default read mode features. Visor settings: red green blue contrast height of the point of focus overlay.
(2019-02-17) Aaron Vazquez: Great extension. Like the other reviews, you have to activate visor for every page you go to. Would like to see this extension get applied to all pages without activating the extension every time.

(2018-03-16) kelly C: have to uninstal
(2018-03-13) Robin Todd: I really wanted something to help me read pdfs online. I imagined a line across the screen which followed my cursor to help guide my eyes. This is even better than I imagined. I would have given it 6 stars, but when I was looking for a reading guide 8 months ago I did not find this extension. Today I found it because I have a migraine and was looking to dim my screen. I'm so excited to have found this multifunctional tool.
(2018-01-06) Techyyah: doesnt even work

(2017-11-19) Sarah Dewfall: Very helpful!
(2017-09-19) Lee Pope: Is there a hotkey to activate? This neat extension does need to be turned on a lot after updating or refreshing a tab.
(2017-08-17) k.shivani krishna: exactly what i needed! love it! my eyes feel less abused now. thank you. but one has to reapply it for every page even in the same tab! a bit frustrating!

(2021-03-24, v:2.0.6) Gabby Shaddock: PDF Compatibility
Would it be possible to make this extension work on PDFs? That's really the only downside since most of the readings I have (and especially the more intense/strenuous papers) are PDFs. Even if you can't, this is one of the most helpful study/reading tools that I've found!
