Elton John Struggles with Limited Vision After Severe Eye Infection
Singer Elton John has disclosed that he is experiencing “limited vision” in one eye due to a serious eye infection.
In a heartfelt post on his Instagram account, the 77-year-old music icon revealed, “Over the summer, I had a severe eye infection that unfortunately left me with limited vision in one eye. I am on the road to recovery, but it is a very slow process, and it will take time for vision to return to the affected eye.”
Expressing gratitude, he added, “I am so grateful for the wonderful team of doctors and nurses and my family, who have taken such great care of me over the past few weeks.”
Elton John mentioned that he has spent the summer recuperating at home and feels encouraged about his healing progress.
The legendary musician received an outpouring of support from fans and celebrities alike, including heartfelt messages from Donatella Versace, Billie Jean King, TJ Osborne of the Brothers Osborne, Linda Evangelista, and Loni Love.
Interestingly, John’s severe eye infection followed a hospitalization last year due to an “accident” at his Mont Boron villa near Nice, France. At that time, he was admitted to the Princess Grace Hospital in Monaco for observation.
A representative for John stated, “Elton visited a local hospital as a precaution. After being assessed, he was released and is now back home and doing well.”
This incident also led the “Rocket Man” singer to postpone the remainder of his 2021 tour dates to 2023 due to the accident which left his hip “very sore and uncomfortable.” Despite undergoing physiotherapy and specialist treatment, he faced limited mobility and was advised to undergo surgery.
In a previous statement, John emphasized, “I have been advised to undergo surgery as soon as possible to regain full fitness and ensure there are no long-term complications.”
