Accessibility statement

Updated: 27 October 2026.

We want everyone to be able to use shevchykvision.com.ua: people with visual, hearing or motor impairments, people with cognitive disabilities, and anyone who browses on a phone, with a keyboard or with a screen reader. This statement explains how well the site meets accessibility requirements, what is not ready yet and how to report a problem.

Standard and status

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA, the international standard that the European EN 301 549 builds on.

The site is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 AA: most requirements are met, and the exceptions are listed under “Known limitations”.

What we have done

The site can be used with a keyboard, and focus is visible on every element. Each page starts with “Skip to content” and “Accessibility settings” links.
Meaningful images have text descriptions; decorative ones are hidden from screen readers.
Text has sufficient contrast with its background, including white headings over photos.
Pages adapt to screens from 320 pixels wide without horizontal scrolling and scale correctly with browser zoom.
When “Reduce motion” is turned on in your system, the site’s animations are switched off.
Form fields have labels, and errors are explained in text next to the field.
Pop-up menus close with the Esc key.
The video about the clinic’s barrier-free space has Ukrainian and English subtitles.
Every page declares its language in the code, and headings follow a consistent structure.

Accessibility panel

The button with the person icon (bottom left on a computer; in the menu and the footer on a phone) opens a panel where you can:

enlarge text to 115% or 130%;
turn on high contrast;
underline links;
increase spacing between lines and letters;
stop animations and bring back the regular cursor.

Your choice is saved in your browser and applies to every page. The panel adds to your device settings rather than replacing them: browser zoom and system modes keep working.

Known limitations

Lens cursor. On the first screen of some pages the mouse cursor is replaced with a glass lens. The “Stop animations” switch in the panel brings back the regular cursor.
Moving reviews strip. It scrolls on its own. It pauses when you hover over it or reach it with the Tab key, and stops completely with the “Stop animations” switch.
Screen readers. The site has been checked with automated tools and by hand, but full testing with NVDA, JAWS and VoiceOver has not been done yet.

How we tested

We carried out a self-assessment on 27 October 2026:

automated testing with axe-core 4.10 against WCAG 2.0–2.2 level A and AA criteria: 19 pages covering the main templates in Ukrainian and English, at desktop and phone widths. After fixes, no violations were found;
manual checks: keyboard navigation, focus visibility, closing pop-up menus, layout at 320 pixels wide, contrast of text over photos (measured pixel by pixel), and pages with enlarged text.

Automated tools find only some problems, so your feedback is especially valuable to us.
