Reading books and watching movies is common for ordinary people, but for visually impaired friends, it was almost impossible before. This not only reduces their opportunities and avenues for entertainment, but also deprives them of access to information and understanding society, thereby affecting personal development and social integration. For a long time, the country has been improving the reading environment for visually impaired individuals through the development of braille education and braille publishing. However, overall, there are still many obstacles to the learning, life, and social participation of visually impaired friends. Today, we are pleased to see that the basic public services for visually impaired people implemented by the government are being strengthened, and many social welfare organizations are actively innovating, constantly expanding the fields of service for visually impaired people and improving service quality. This is an important manifestation of social civilization and progress. Providing accessibility services for the visually impaired is an important part of the construction of the national accessibility system and a concrete action to promote common prosperity. Common prosperity includes the great richness of material wealth and spiritual wealth; At the same time, the achievements of economic and social development should be shared reasonably among the entire population. Providing accessible services for visually impaired individuals is beneficial for enriching their spiritual and cultural life, promoting their physical and mental health, knowledge accumulation, and ability improvement. It is also beneficial for them to understand and integrate into society, achieve personal development, and contribute to social development. Therefore, the country and society need to continuously build and improve an accessible system, including services for visually impaired individuals. The accessibility level of a country or region is an important indicator of social civilization and progress, and is one of the core indicators to measure its welfare level. Building an accessible service system for visually impaired individuals is a complex system engineering that requires the joint efforts of the entire society. One is to improve the basic public service system for visually impaired individuals. Starting from meeting the basic needs of visually impaired individuals, we need to strengthen public cultural services tailored to their special needs, promote accessibility of public facilities, equipment, and information exchange, gradually expand the publication scale of reading materials for visually impaired individuals, and implement preferential access to public cultural facilities for people with disabilities. Providing public cultural services for visually impaired individuals requires corresponding costs, and the cost of certain projects is relatively high. Therefore, based on scientific and reasonable cost analysis, it is necessary to gradually add basic public service projects for visually impaired individuals according to the principle of both doing our best and acting within our capabilities, and adopt practical and feasible supply methods to steadily promote effective implementation mechanisms. The second is to fully mobilize social forces to participate in services for visually impaired individuals. The service needs of visually impaired individuals are diverse, requiring continuous expansion of service supply content and innovation in service supply methods. Therefore, while strengthening basic public services for visually impaired individuals, it is necessary to encourage public welfare organizations and volunteers to pay attention to and actively participate in services for visually impaired individuals. The services provided by social forces for visually impaired individuals are beneficial supplements to basic public services, and can also explore ways for the expansion of basic public service projects and scope in the future. This includes specific service projects designed and directly implemented by public welfare organizations for visually impaired individuals, funding provided by public welfare organizations for basic public service projects, and volunteer participation in government organized basic public services or service projects implemented by public welfare organizations. The third is to gradually improve the professional level of services for visually impaired individuals. Providing services to visually impaired individuals is a complex undertaking that requires a focus on
