CNN —Elton John says he still cannot see, months after suffering a severe eye infection.
Speaking on stage at a gala performance of “The Devil Wears Prada” musical in London on Sunday, John thanked his husband, David Furnish, saying he “has been my rock.”“I haven’t been able to come to many of the previews because, as you know, I have lost my eyesight.
But I love to hear it and, boy, it sounded good tonight,” said John.
In an interview with Good Morning America last week, John said the issue has been affecting his ability to work.
“I unfortunately lost my eyesight in my right eye in July because I had an infection in the south of France and it’s been four months now since I haven’t been able to see, and my left eye is not the greatest,” he said.
