Handrail Audit Price my website

The barriers on your optometry website that a patient with a disability cannot get past. Found by a person, at a fixed price.

We test against WCAG 2.1 Level AA, the standard cited in ADA website claims.

This is what a patient with low vision meets on an optometry website today.

  1. The patient opens the website. The appointment times are text with low color contrast.

    Before
    A real practice page, blurred: a light grey band with a heading in white, barely visible, outlined.
    After

    The patient can't read them.

    30 of 42 practices.

    Counts from our hand test of 42 optometry websites in Los Angeles County, August 2026.

  2. The patient looks for the way to book. The links in the header are icons with no name.

    Before
    A real practice page, blurred: a small icon-only link at the end of a line of text, outlined. It has no name.
    After

    The screen reader says: link, link, link.

    26 of 42 practices.

  3. The patient finds the button that starts a booking. The button has no name.

    Before
    A real practice page, blurred: a photo gallery with arrow buttons that are only icons. The right arrow is outlined. It has no name.
    After

    The screen reader says: button.

    10 of 42 practices.

  4. The patient telephones a different practice.

    The appointment goes to the practice down the road.

The price

Findings report

$1,250 to $2,750 a usual practice website, fixed before the work starts

The price is set by the pages we test, and the quote names each one. After your developer makes the corrections, we test the same pages again for half the first price.

Three in four eye care websites in Los Angeles County have a failure on the path to booking.

In September 2026 we scanned 833 eye care websites in Los Angeles County with the same engine WebAIM uses on its one million home pages. 94 percent have one or more failures. 76 percent have one on the path to booking: an image with no description, a link or button with no name, or a form field with no label. A scan finds about one third of the barriers, so each count is a minimum.

One page, as it appears in the report

Each finding names the page, the element, what a screen reader announces, and the correction with the markup after it. Findings are ranked by severity so your developer knows what to fix first. Failures inside a vendor's booking widget are listed separately. Your number is your own markup alone.

The privacy notice is drawn as a picture. A screen reader gets none of it.

Serious WCAG 1.1.1 Non-text Content · Level A
What fails
The page shows the notice with the site builder's PDF viewer. The viewer draws each page into a canvas, which is a picture with no text.
What it does to a patient
A patient who uses a screen reader hears the heading and the links, then silence where the notice is. The patient can't get to the notice on the page at all.
The correction
Put the notice on the page as text, in the two languages, with the PDF link below it. 30 to 60 minutes.
