This study investigated the computing knowledge of students with visual impairments in a Ghanaian university. Using the case study research design, 103 students were randomly sampled from a population of 118 students with visual impairments. A test instrument was used to collect data for the study. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the data. The results of the study indicated that the participants were knowledgeable in some aspects of basic computer operations, while they were not competent in the use of software. The study concluded that students with visual impairments can gain knowledge and competence in basic computer operations and the use of software and applications if the necessary steps are taken. It was recommended that students with visual impairments should be given access to computers and training by competent ICT professionals who understand the technological needs of students with visual impairments.
