Singer-songwriter Elton John revealed that he lost vision in his right eye in July and it was due to an eye infection he sustained while spending the summer in the south of France, reported People.
"It kind of floored me, and I can't see anything. I can't read anything, I can't watch anything," he shared.
On talking about his upcoming new album, John said it had "been a while since I've done anything."
However, "there's hope and encouragement that "it will be okay, but I'm kind of stuck at the moment ... going into the studio and recording, I don't know," he added.
The singer noted that his "left eye's not the greatest," and it has prevented him from reading lyrics or watching anything, but that he's "taking the initiative to try and get it better," reported People.

He further expressed that although he is in the process of healing, "it will take some time before sight returns to the impacted eye."
In his message, John conveyed deep gratitude to the healthcare professionals and his family for their unwavering support during his recovery. "I am so grateful for the excellent team of doctors and nurses and my family, who have taken such good care of me over the last several weeks," he wrote.John has been recuperating quietly at home and remains optimistic about his recovery. "I'm feeling positive about the progress I have made in my healing and recovery thus far," he added.
