August Alsina Updates Fans On The Scary Situation With His Eyes

August Alsina's rapid rise to the top of the R&B game has almost been derailed twice now by health issues.

Back in September he collapsed while suffering multiple seizures, and yesterday the 22-year old revealed that he had gone blind in his left eye and was rapidly losing vision in his right.

Luckily, we live in an age where such things can be fixed, and Alsina just shared an Instagram photos of the surgery he underwent to hopefully save his vision.

So I have this eye disease.. Blind in my left, and losing vision in my right. In order to prevent my eyesight from deteriorating ihad to do this surgery. This shit is beyond painful & Life be throwin' a nigxa curve balls but what I've gained from it all is priceless... A lot of things that are so natural to us in life (like waking up and being able to see ) we can take it for granted. Thank God the OG for allowing me to see.. The good the bad the ugly, I'm just glad to see
