My 8 yo son was diagnosed with latent hyperopia (farsightedness). He may also have dyslexia. I got him a kindle fire for Christmas. He can listen to the audiobook while also following along while text self-highlights. You can also change the font size. He uses it for reading and listening to audiobooks. He uses it every day. It has robust parental controls, and I have turned off Internet, games, apps, movies etc. I want it to be for books only. It does seem to have made it easier for him to read.
