I used to have a coworker who was REALLY slow at reading code. For the longest time, I couldn't figure out why, but eventually he told me he was dyslexic.
I mentioned that I had hear of some fonts that were specifically made for people with dyslexia, so he downloaded one and tried it out. There was an almost immediate improvement in his output of code, and it was always interesting to go read over his shoulder and see things not-monospaced.
Personally, I only stick to monospaced fonts, but I wouldn't be totally opposed to trying something else. I even tried dotsies for a while (http://dotsies.org/) but could never get used to it and it slowed me down too much.
