If your icon button passes a visual review but fails a screen-reader test, it isn't done. Accessibility isn't a post-launch audit—it's a design constraint that produces better icons for everyone, including sighted users in challenging conditions.

An icon that looks great on your 5K monitor might be invisible on a budget Android phone in direct sunlight. Worse—it might be entirely meaningless to a screen-reader user.
