What Is Ciego.org?

Ciego.org focuses on digital accessibility, visual accessibility, assistive technology, and educational resources. Its goal is to make useful accessibility information easier to discover and to provide practical tools for people with different visual and accessibility needs.

Digital information is not equally accessible to everyone. Images may lack meaningful descriptions, websites may be difficult to navigate using a keyboard, text may be hard to read, and color choices may make important information difficult to distinguish.

We aim to help address these challenges through accessible web utilities, visual simulations, text tools, learning resources, and developer-oriented accessibility checks as those tools become available.

Ciego.org is intended for blind and low-vision users, people with color vision deficiencies, developers, educators, designers, and anyone interested in making digital content easier to use.

Our Mission and Accessibility Philosophy

Accessibility is not just a technical requirement. It is a practical way to make information, services, and technology more usable by a wider range of people.

Inclusive Design

Digital experiences should consider different abilities, assistive technologies, preferences, and ways of interacting with information.

Useful Technology

Thoughtfully designed tools can help people interpret visual information, work with text, and explore accessibility concepts.

Accessible Websites

Semantic HTML, keyboard access, clear labels, readable content, and appropriate contrast help make websites easier to use.

Braille and Text Access

Braille-related resources and text accessibility tools can support learning and different ways of accessing written information.

Visual Awareness

Educational simulations can illustrate selected visual effects while helping users understand why accessibility choices matter.

Continuous Improvement

Accessibility tools and standards evolve. We aim to make our resources useful, understandable, and increasingly accessible.

Principles We Value

Clarity: information should be understandable and easy to navigate.
Keyboard access: essential interactions should not depend solely on a mouse.
Readable content: text, headings, and controls should be presented clearly.
Respect for users: disabled people have diverse needs, preferences, and experiences.
Honest tool descriptions: automated checks and simulations have limitations and should not be presented as substitutes for every form of accessibility evaluation.
