Sir Elton John on losing his eyesight
In December, during an appearance at The Devil Wears Prada stage show, Elton revealed that he had lost sight in one of his eyes.
“As some of you may know I have had issues and now I have lost my sight. I haven’t been able to see the performance but I have enjoyed it,” he told the crowd.
I have lost my sight.
“To my husband who’s been my rock because I haven’t been able to come to many of the previews, it’s hard for me to see it but I love to hear it and it sounded good tonight OK. Thank you for coming!” he then added.
The star’s right eye became infected while in France last summer. Despite treatment, his vision hasn’t fully returned.
“It’s been four months since I haven’t been able to see. So there’s hope and encouragement that it will be okay, but I’m kind of stuck at the moment,” he said.
