Muri ibyo bibazo ngo harimo ukutakirwa neza aho basaba serivise, kutumva uburenganzira bwabo, kudahabwa amakuru ndetse no gufatwa nabi muri serivise zinyuranye cyane cyane izo kwa muganga.

Ukuntu twabasuzuma n’uko twabaha imiti, ubu twabonye ubumenyi mu gukoresha ururimi rw’amarenga n’ubumenyi mu gukoresha inkoni zifashishwa n’abafite ubumuga bwo kutabona, twashize n’amatsiko ku nyandiko ya ‘braille’ y’abafite ubumuga bwo kutabona, bije kutwunganira ku byo twakoraga”.

Ariko ubu amahugurwa adusigiye ubumenyi bwo guca amarenga ku buryo uvugana n’uwo murwayi bitabaye ngombwa ko uwaje amuherekeje amenya amabanga ye yose”.

Ikindi kibazo cyagarutse kenshi ni uburyo bwo gufasha abantu bafite ubumuga bwo kutabona, mu kumenya uburyo afata imiti adakeneye umufasha, aho abaganga bishimiye uburyo bigishijwe inyandiko igenewe abafite ubumuga bwo kutabona.
