This article examines the history of special education in Uzbekistan from 1925 to 1990, with a particular focus on the education of blind children. Throughout the Soviet era, Uzbekistan underwent significant developments in its approach to educating children with disabilities, including the establishment of specialized schools and the adaptation of curricula and teaching methods to meet the unique needs of visually impaired students. Despite progress, challenges such as limited resources and unequal access to education persisted. The legacy of this period lays the foundation for ongoing efforts to promote inclusive education in Uzbekistan.
