Visual impairment is defined as the limitation of actions and functions of the visual system. At Procurify we want everyone to be able to use our platform without visual issues. If you find it is too bright, too dark, or just needs some more definition we have found three Chrome Extensions that are brilliant in helping those with visual impairment.
Option 1. Dark Mode
For those who have sensitivity to light or just enjoy Dark mode on their browsers.
The toggle button enables you to easily apply| or remove dark themes for all websites.
You can whitelist the desired website(s) from the options page.
Four custom dark themes are available to use (see options page).
Available for Firefox, Chrome, and Opera browsers on all operating systems.
Option 2. Achromatic

Option 3. ColorBlind A11Y Assistant
Make websites more accessible for people with color vision deficiencies. Color Vision Deficiency Assistant is one of the first web extensions created by color-blind people to help other color-blind people navigate the web.
It is designed to be able to provide concrete help to people who have any type of color blindness, through a feature list born from in-depth user research.
The main features are:
- Highlight buttons all the interactable areas of the web page you are visiting,so that you can click exactly where you need to.
- Underline links not every links on the internet are underlined, many only have a different color tone.
Through this feature you can make any link underlined, in order to immediately perceive the contrast.
Additional Information:
- If you suspect you have any vision impairments seek out a vision specialist in your area.
- Online Vision tests such as Essilor Vision Tests can be used as a pre-screening option for vision impairment (These tests have no diagnostic value. In case of difficulties, only an eye care professional can carry out a complete eye examination to detect any eventual visual problems)
