VISION ACCESSIBILITY Vision loss is one of the main causes that hinder reading, whether it is due to the passage of time, an accident, or low vision from birth. LUP App focuses on bringing accessibility to any type of everyday document. LUP, OUR MISSION We want reading to stop being an obstacle in the daily lives of people, betting on accessibility, inclusion, providing autonomy and avoiding school failure, among others.
