How TheSiteFuse checks "Icon accessibility"

Icons (arrows, logos, pictograms) should either be hidden from screen readers (if decorative) with aria-hidden="true", or labelled with aria-label if they carry meaning (e.g., a close button).

Real-world impact of "Icon accessibility"

An icon without ARIA management may be read as "image without description" by a screen reader, making the site difficult to use for the visually impaired. It's easily fixed with a single attribute.
