For me, there are arrows to the left and right of the month name, and I
can browse through the months. I can't go by year as I could in GNOME 2,
but I don't think that's as common. Do you not have arrows next to the
month name? Perhaps something is wrong with your installation.

You should talk to the accessibility team. We do have a high-contrast
theme for exactly that kind of visual problem. Except: 1) it doesn't
brighten the non-hover text color on the top bar (arguably it should),
and 2) the full high-contrast theme might be more than you need. The
accessibility team would be the ones to make recommendations for how
to address your needs.
