As Tomasz and Dariusz wrote, while visually impaired people have their
solutions, other users might want to use Wikipedia etc. as an audible
source, even as podcasts (because they prefer learning while listening,
they are on the go etc.). I guess as well that mobile platforms bring some
use cases here (and I don't know if the solutions used by impaired people
are so useful on, say, iPad or Android phone, especially in less popular
languages).
Some completely other yet connected thing is assistance for impaired to
actually edit. Recently I have been approached by a person born blind who
reads content from MediaWiki but had it difficult to actually contribute
(while they wished to).
