1. Our Commitment to Accessibility<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Anand Eye Institute recognises the importance of making healthcare information accessible to people with different abilities, needs and ways of accessing digital content.<\/p>

We aim to provide a website that supports a clear, comfortable and inclusive browsing experience for patients, caregivers and visitors.<\/p>

As an eye-care institution, we recognise that visitors may have varying levels of vision and may use screen readers, keyboard navigation, magnification tools or other assistive technologies.<\/p>

We are committed to improving the accessibility and usability of our website as part of our ongoing digital experience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

2. Accessibility Standards<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

AEI aims to align its website with recognised web accessibility practices, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.<\/p>

These guidelines provide recommendations for making digital content perceivable, operable, understandable and robust for people with different abilities.<\/p>

Our accessibility efforts will consider applicable legal requirements and recognised accessibility standards as the website is developed, reviewed and maintained.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We aim to incorporate accessibility considerations into the design, content and functionality of our website.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.1 Readable Content<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We aim to provide clear headings, logical content structure, readable typography, appropriate spacing, sufficient colour contrast and descriptive link labels.<\/p>

Our content is written to help visitors understand information about eye-care services, doctors, appointments, hospital locations and patient support.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.2 Images and Alternative Text <\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Relevant images should include descriptive alternative text to help visitors using screen readers understand their purpose or content.<\/p>

Decorative images should be implemented in a way that avoids unnecessary interruptions for assistive technology users.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.3 Keyboard Navigation<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We aim to support navigation through key website features using a keyboard.<\/p>

Interactive elements should have a logical focus order and visible focus indicators to help visitors understand which element is currently selected.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.4 Screen Reader Compatibility<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

These practices help visitors using screen readers understand website content and navigate available features.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.5 Forms and Interactive Features<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Website forms should provide clear labels, understandable instructions and useful validation messages.<\/p>

Appointment enquiries, contact forms and other interactive features should be designed to support accessible navigation and completion wherever practical.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

3.6 Mobile and Responsive Accessibility<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We aim to provide a website that adapts to different screen sizes and supports access across mobile phones, tablets and desktop computers.<\/p>

Content should remain usable with browser zoom and text enlargement wherever compatible with the relevant feature.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Accessibility is an ongoing process.<\/p>

As we review and improve the AEI website, we aim to identify opportunities to strengthen readability, navigation, compatibility with assistive technologies and access to healthcare information.<\/p>

We may review the website through manual testing, automated accessibility checks and feedback from visitors.<\/p>

Some third-party tools or embedded services may have accessibility characteristics determined by their providers. We will consider accessibility when selecting and reviewing such services.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
