Is there any scientific basis or anecdotal evidence supporting the claim that Comic Sans MS Bold is easier to read for individuals with dyslexia?

While some individuals with dyslexia anecdotally report finding Comic Sans MS easier to read, attributing it to its distinct, less uniform letter shapes that may reduce letter 'mirroring' or 'crowding,' there is no definitive scientific consensus or strong empirical evidence universally proving its superiority over other fonts specifically designed for dyslexia. Fonts like OpenDyslexic or Dyslexie are engineered with specific features to aid dyslexic readers and often prove more effective. The perceived benefit of Comic Sans is not consistently supported by research, and individual preferences vary widely.
