Hence, what places need a drastic change? We suggest checking your platform and making sure it provides The alt text and headings that are properly structured. Making your sites fully accessible for people with visual impairments is like building a fully accessible house for people who use mobility devices. Without accessibility, a person can not use your website.
ACCESSIBILITY MATTERS
How Can a person who is visually impaired see? How Can a person who is visually impaired see? Before answering this question, let's start by giving you information on how a person who is sighted can maneuver through a website and go on from there.
A person who is sighted can find things easy to maneuver since they are used to visual prompts on an innate level---using headers on various levels, emphasized regions, pictures, menus, footers, etc.
This is more difficult for a person who is visually impaired to maneuver through a website since they're unable to see what's on the website. Everything that a person who is sighted can see needs to be accessible to be read by a person who is visually impaired through a screen reader. A screen reader is a program that reads codes and speaks the content out loud. The way the programs read is from left to right and top to bottom, from the first level headings to the smaller ones.
How to make your website accessible
Components of your website that you can improve to make it accessible for people who are visually impaired.

Living With Disabilities suggests making sure your software is accurate. Automatic Alt Text does not always give a full description. When it comes to sites that use Alt text, like Facebook, going in and checking to see if the software has properly described the image can be off by a little or a lot. In this case, giving the wrong information leaves a person clueless. Don't leave your customer, patron, etc. drawing an exclamation mark.

When you do your research, not only do you perform better, but you also feel better about including everyone on your website. Please don't leave the room. On this platform, Living With Disabilities still has more to say to raise awareness for people who are blind. What exactly is that? If you know someone who is blind, you should know that in addition to screen readers, there are additional tools that they can use to see. What about their ability to use apps, though?
Vision impairment is a topic that Living With Disabilities is learning more and more about. What we've discovered about applications is that: 1. Which ones will function for accessibility for vision impairment? 2. Will they be reasonably priced?
