ResumoDue to an ischemic attack a congenitally blind man became aphasic. He had a severe Wernicke's aphasia and aphasic dyslexia of Braille. The patient had been a very expert Braille reader before his illness. Two texts of 250 words each were read and the results analysed. One text was in basic Braille and the other in contracted Braille. Results of the analysis are discussed with regard to processes in reading Braille and problems of dyslexia.
