Icon name

Blind user

Use cases

For accessibility purposes I want to use this icon.

Use case 1: Currently i'm working on a website that includes multiple public spacis in our city, they are for all kind of users and I would like to indicate that the space is available for blind users as well.
Use case 2: Every personal website of public space can show how accessible they are. For example a restaurant that has a braille menu can indicate that they are accessible. Even though it would be important to have a proper alt text for this, it's still inclusive to also use the correct icon.

Besides that I feel like this is part of the basics of accessibility icons. If there is a wheelchair, there should also be an icon for deaf users and blind users.
