Elton John’s Album Delayed as He Focuses on Eye Recovery
Sir Elton John has revealed that his upcoming album is on hold due to ongoing struggles with his eyesight following an infection in July. The legendary singer shared on ABC’s Good Morning America that he has been unable to see out of his right eye for four months, while vision in his left eye has also been impaired.
Discussing the challenges, he explained, “I can do something like this [interview], but going into the studio and recording, I don’t know, because I can’t see a lyric for a start.”
Elton expressed frustration, saying, “It kind of floored me… I can’t read anything, I can’t watch anything.”
While he admitted he’s currently “stuck” and hasn’t worked on the album recently, he remains hopeful about his recovery. He shared that ongoing treatments have brought “hope and encouragement” that his condition will improve.
For now, the 76-year-old icon is focusing on his health, with optimism that his creative endeavors will soon resume.
