Many individuals with reading difficulties, such as dyslexia, have already benefited from OrCam Read. The main problem with language learning is that many people struggle with reading difficulties. These concerns are especially prevalent among youngsters in primary school and are sometimes quite serious. When a youngster believes that he is not as good as other children at reading or writing, he may become depressed. OrCam Read transforms the way people read, especially children and college students, to make the world more accessible for everyone.

In order to increase the awareness of accessibility, TIME Magazine has added this category in recent years. They are choosing the greatest inventions, which improve the lives of people with impairments such as hearing difficulties, reading difficulties, or mobility challenges. It is a nice way to show that not everyone has equal opportunities and every individual should have a chance to make a change.
