Don't use right as a directional term by itself. Instead, use a term such as upper right, lower right, rightmost, or the right side of. Include a hyphen when you use right to modify a noun, as in upper-right corner. Don't use right-hand as a modifier.
Accessibility tip Don't use directional terms (left, right, up, down) as the only clue to location. Individuals with cognitive disabilities might have difficulty interpreting them, as might people who are blind and use screen-reading software. It's OK to use a directional term if another indication of location, such as in the Save As dialog box, on the Standard toolbar, or in the title bar, is also included. Directional terms are also OK to use when a sighted user with dyslexia can clearly see a change in the interface as the result of an action, such as a change in the right pane when an option in the left pane is selected.
