```tsx
<Button>
  <VisuallyHidden>Checkmark</VisuallyHidden>
  <CheckIcon />
</Button>
```

## Usage

```tsx
import { VisuallyHidden } from "@yamada-ui/react"
```

```tsx
import { VisuallyHidden } from "@/components/ui"
```

```tsx
import { VisuallyHidden } from "@workspaces/ui"
```

```tsx
<VisuallyHidden>Hidden content</VisuallyHidden>
```

It is used to visually hide elements, but it is accessible in screen readers. By default, it renders a `span` element.
