You must have completed the first steps of the wizard to have arrived at this page.
The vision impairment section has three pages. They are all very self explanatory. For each page, choose the option that best meets your needs, and click next to confirm.

Page 2: Icon sizesDouble-clicking on fiddly little icons is difficult. For those with sight problems they can be difficult to see, and for those with physical difficulties they can be tricky to target.

Page 3: Overall colour schemeA high contrast colour scheme, while may look ugly and outdated to some, can provide a massively improved interface for visually impaired. If you are not keen on the colour schemes listed, you can use your own. See the Accessibility Options tutorial for more information.
