Hi - if somebody has a visual impairment, then they are already likely to have their own screen reader and wouldn't need individual websites to provide this for them.
Hi Deborah. Is your question relating to making your website accessible to visually impaired people or to have information on being visually impaired?
I am visually impaired myself and accessibility is the biggest challenge on the internet. Relying on screen reader software I would encourage all website owners to consider accessibility issues for all. One easy one is to ensure you add alt text to any image.
There are guidelines and resources online such as at AbilityNet to help make your website accessible.
Hope that helps

Both I guess and I am wanting my site to to be accessible for anybody and I want them to feel comfort on my site so they get a good experience while visiting my site. I just don't know how to make it accessible for all
Brilliant! If you visit somewhere like https://www.w3.org/WAI/fundamentals/accessibility-intro/ there are resources to help get you started.
There is also information at Wordpress too
