It has always been difficult for Peter to read some websites. He would always prefer to shop in a store than order anything online. Sometimes, when he tried to pay for an e-shop basket, he realized that he can't finish doing it without someone else's help. He does not feel well when he is dependent on other people’s help.

He does not want to use the screen reader. He is not blind, and moreover, you can’t get such a device cheap. He can see, but he has difficulty identifying small letters. Especially when the text has no sufficient contrast against the background.
