Over the weekend, reports started spreading that the Spice Girls star, Mel B had been hospitalized after losing her vision. According to a source, her loss of vision was caused by an existing condition. “She’s doing fine now, she’s not blind,” an insider told People. “This has happened before. She has herpes in her eye, so this can happen,” the person claimed. Mel B toot to Instagram to shut the rumours down.“Thank you so much for all the lovely support and messages I’ve had about my eye. Just so you know the real truth,” Mel B captioned a black and white photo of herself wearing an eye patch. “I had an awful experience last week when I went blind in my right eye and my left eye went blurry.” “Even though the stupid press said I’m ok and this has happened to me many times before, just to be clear I was NOT ok and this has NEVER EVER happened to me before,” the singer wrote, in part. “I was actually in a lot of pain and very very scared,” she continued, explaining she was eventually diagnosed by an eye specialist with severe iritis in her right eye and uveitis in her left eye.
