The best "fact-based" explanation I`ve found is this:
"Supposedly an impossible thing to do, since dreaming is done with the right brain, and reading is done with the left brain, and the one cannot create the functions of the other. This is almost accurate. During sleep, certain parts of the brain are inactive, including those responsible for making out forms of letters and words (parts whose failure causes disorders such as dyslexia or dysgraphia). However, this does not preclude reading, only making out the forms of letters and words." source
So it seems like you can hold a book in a dream, stare at the pages and know, what the book is about, but you would fail to read a Snellen chart (an eye chart used by doctors to measure how well you can see in the distance - yay! Another interesting fact! :P ) or recognize a group of letters (maybe even a reCAPTCHA would cause you some problems...).
Well, whether you can read in a dream or not, here is a song for you - I`m quite sure after listening to it over 100 times, you`ll easily pass an eye check even with your eyes closed (and not just in your dream but even for real).
