There is no definitive historical evidence to confirm whether Aesop, the ancient Greek storyteller credited with the fables known as Aesop's Fables, was blind. Some ancient sources suggest that he may have been blind or disfigured, but these accounts are not universally accepted by scholars. The focus of Aesop's storytelling was on moral lessons rather than his personal characteristics, so the question of his blindness is not central to his legacy.

People believe that he might have been blind because of sculptures of him. They think in order to write his stories he told someone else what the story was so they could write it for him
