Elton John has spoken openly about the emotional toll of losing his vision, revealing that some activities that once loved, have now become impossible.
In an interview with The Times of London, the legendary musician reflected on the challenges that he is facing due to a serious eye infection that caused permanent loss. Last year, he revealed that this situation had greatly impressed his vision – a reality he accepted is deeply upset.
During the interview, the 78 -year -old artist explained how his deteriorating vision has affected his daily life. He shared that he can no longer watch or read television, and more painfully, he is unable to see his sons playing football or rugby. Alton described the period as incredibly stressful, saying that he has always been a person who is completely busy in every moment.

“You feel emotions, but you have to learn to live with it, because I am lucky for my life,” he said. “I still have my amazing family, and my left eye still has some vision. And when you think about it, you just keep walking.”
Elton has long expressed how much he gives importance to his family-her husband David Fernish, and his two sons, 14-year-old Zachari and 12-year-old Eliza.
In an interview with ABC, he went into more detail about the eye infection that changed everything. He said, “I have found an infection to the south of France. I have been four months, because I can see properly, and my left eye is not very well,” he explained. “I hope it will get better, but right now, I am stuck. I can sit and interview, but can go to the studio and record? I don’t know. I can’t watch the song.”
Along with losing the ability to do things that he loved once – reading, watching TV, making music – has been a painful process. Nevertheless, Elton has continued to face it with honesty, flexibility and gratitude.
