Rambam Eyecon. We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their abilities. We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. To achieve this, we strive to adhere to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines helps us ensure that the site is accessible to people who are blind, visually impaired, or have other cognitive or physical disabilities. This website uses various technologies to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We use an accessibility interface that allows people with disabilities to customize the website’s user interface and tailor it to their individual needs. In addition, the site uses a background application that constantly optimizes its accessibility level. This application fixes the site’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for screen readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by people with motor disabilities.

As soon as a user with a screen reader enters our site, they are immediately prompted to enter the screen reader profile so they can browse and operate the site effectively. Our site covers some of the most important requirements for screen readers: Screen reader optimization: We run a process that learns the site’s components from top to bottom, to ensure continuous compatibility even when the site is updated. In this process, we provide screen readers with meaningful data using the ARIA feature set. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for practical icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form input; component roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogs (pop-ups), and others. Image descriptions: In addition, the background process scans all of the site’s images. It provides an accurate and meaningful description based on image object recognition as ALT text (alternative text) for images that are not described. It will also extract text embedded within the image using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. To activate screen reader adjustments at any time, users need to press only the Alt+1 keyboard shortcut. Screen reader users also receive automatic notifications to activate screen reader mode as soon as they enter the website. These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. Keyboard Navigation Optimization: The background process also adapts the site’s HTML and adds various modes of operation using JavaScript code to make the site keyboard-operable. This includes the ability to navigate the site using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, activate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them using Esc, activate buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox components using the arrow keys, and fill them in using the Space or Enter key. In addition, keyboard users will find skip content menus available at all times by pressing Alt+2, or as the first element of the site when navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles pop-ups by moving the keyboard focus to them as soon as they appear, and not allowing the focus to drift away. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific components.
