Elton John Discusses Losing Vision Due to Infection

Elton John has been unable to see out of his right eye for the past four months due to a severe infection he contracted in the South of France in July. During a recent interview on Good Morning America, he expressed optimism about his recovery despite the challenges, stating, "There’s hope and encouragement that it will be OK." His vision loss has hindered his ability to work on his new album, as he cannot read lyrics or see anything clearly. John shared that he is focusing on healing and has been grateful for the support from his medical team and family. Despite the adversity, he maintains a positive outlook, declaring himself the "luckiest man in the world." John also mentioned his upcoming documentary, highlighting his resilience during this difficult period.
