摘要：

Ensuring equitable educational opportunities for blind and visually impaired (BVI) students in Saudi Arabian higher education remains challenging despite legislative and institutional efforts. This paper proposes a system to assist BVI students independently during exams, aiming to create an inclusive exam environment that minimizes distractions and facilitates their participation alongside peers. Key contributions include the development of a secure platform, ensuring exam confidentiality, and fostering confidence and active engagement among BVI individuals. The study highlights the importance of integrating innovative assistive technologies and implementing rigorous policies to overcome systemic barriers and improve support mechanisms for BVI students in educational settings.
