Abstract: This study was conducted to compare the perceptions of blind and sighted students toward using computer games in education. There were 29 blind students and 50 sighted students involved in this study from two different public elementary schools, one for blind students and other for sighted students. Conducting this research may help to see the current situation and guide a successful implementation for the future. According to the results, there were some distinctions and similarties between blind and sighted students. Findings and discussion were presented.
