Diagnoses

Here is how rule engines diagnose the image name contains image issue for HTML element 1637 of the Prevention of Blindness Society of Metropolitan Washington page.

This image's alt text is "Image of an adult woman volunteering at an eye health-related event.," which mentions that this image is an image. Screen readers announce they are describing an image when reading alt text, so phrases like "image of" and "photo of" are usually redundant in alt text; the screen reader user hears "image: image of something." Note that this is OK if the format is referring to the content of the image: <ul><li>Format is redundant: "photo of a VHS tape"</li> <li>Format is relevant: "photo of a VHS tape in a photo album being discussed in a history class"</li></ul>
