It isn't. It's a learning disability and can be treated. Many dyslexics have very high IQs and are very intelligent.

Albert Einstein was dyslexic, and he certainly wasn't of low intelligence

Actually its a specific Learning Difficulty and although there is no 'cure' for it as such, many individuals who have been diagnosed as being dyslexic come up with their own coping strategies. They are generally above average when it comes to IQ.
