Elton John Struggles with Eye Infection

Elton John, 77, revealed he has lost vision in his right eye for the past four months due to a severe infection he contracted in July while in the south of France. This condition has significantly impacted his ability to work on his new album and perform live, leading him to step down from the Dreamfest benefit concert in September. He described the experience as overwhelming, stating, “I can’t read anything, I can’t watch anything,” and emphasized the struggle of being unable to see lyrics. Despite the challenges, John remains hopeful for recovery and is actively trying to improve his situation. He is currently promoting his documentary, 'Elton John: Never Too Late', while expressing gratitude for his life and circumstances. John's positive attitude shines through as he claims to be “the happiest man in the world,” despite his health issues.
