“I am healing, but it’s an extremely slow process and it will take some time before sight returns to the impacted eye.”
He went on to thank his excellent team of medical staff, as well as his family, for taking care of him over the last several weeks.
“I have been quietly spending the summer recuperating at home, and am feeling positive about the progress I have made in my healing and recovery thus far,” he added, before signing off “with love and gratitude, Elton John.”
