Reading disabilities

Design Considerations

People with reading disabilities benefit from:

  • Supplemental illustrations, videos, or audio in addition to text.
  • Slightly lower levels of contrast than “black on white” or “white on black” as super-high contrast can cause eyestrain in addition to making reading more complicated.
