Sir Elton John has revealed to what extent his vision has been affected after suffering from a serious eye infection last year.
The 78 -year -old great British composer revealed in an Instagram post in September that he had lost his right eye in his right eye due to an infection in the south of France and only had a limited vision in his left eye.
In a new interview with Many timesSir Elton was asked if he could see the journalist interviewing.
“I can see you, but I can’t watch TV, I can’t read,” he replied.
He said, “I can’t see my boys playing rugby and football,” he said, referring to his sons Zachari, 14, and Eliza, 12, whom he shares with husband David Fernish. “
“And this has been a very stressful time because I am used to soak it. It’s harassing you. You get emotional, but you have to get used to it because I am lucky for my life. I still have my amazing family, and I can still see something from here,” he said, pointing to his left eye. “So you say to yourself, just go with it.”
In December, John admitted that he was unable to watch his new music, the devil Wears Prada, Due to their vision issues.
He said, “I am not able to come in many previews, because as you know, I have lost my eyesight. So it is difficult for me to see it. But I like to hear it and the boy was good tonight,” he said that a gala performance of the show was staged to raise funds for Alton John AIDS Foundation on stage.

In a recent interview with Zen Lowe for Apple Music 1, John reported that Carlil saved him from falling into a creative odor when he first began working on the album together for the first time.
“If I had made only another Elton John record, I would have killed myself,” he said. “I needed her, I needed her talent, her energy, her humor and her magnificent songs. I have met two of the two greatest songwriters in the world. Bernie Tupin and Brandi Karlil. Songs in front of me.
“If you can’t write great songs for those people … this is my great talent, to be able to interpret those beautiful songs quickly. When we were leaving, it was like an express train, like Josh, like it was.”
