Robbie Williams fears weight loss jabs are 'making him blind'
Share this @internewscast.com

Robbie Williams has expressed concern that weight loss injections might be impairing his vision, as he has observed a noticeable decline in his eyesight.

The 51-year-old musician shared that his vision has been increasingly blurred over recent months, attributing the changes to the medication Mounjaro, which has begun to interfere with his performance on stage.

During poignant moments in his concerts, Williams has found himself unable to clearly see the faces of his audience members.

Now, the former member of Take That urges others to be aware of potential side effects and to thoroughly investigate before considering similar treatments.

In an interview with The Sun, Robbie recounted his initial realization of the issue during an American football game, where players were indistinct, appearing only as shapes on the field.

He has since consulted an optician and received a prescription for new glasses, although he initially didn’t link his vision problems to the injections.

Opening up, he revealed: ‘I was quite an early adapter of the jabs but what I’m also noticing is that my eyesight’s not very good.

‘It’s been blurry for a while now, and it’s only getting worse. I don’t believe it’s age; I believe it’s the jabs.’

On tour, the problem has become even more obvious. 

Robbie, who typically serenades a fan during She’s The One, admitted he can barely see the person he’s performing to – something the audience is completely unaware of.

He continued: ‘Basically, I was looking in the direction of these women looking up at me, having this experience that’s quite obviously incredible to them, and little do they know I can’t see them. ‘

Despite the concerns, the former Take That singer has also spoken openly about how the jab has eased long-standing mental health struggles, saying the relief from ‘constant mental anguish’ has been transformative. 

He has overhauled his lifestyle too, incorporating daily workouts, stretching routines and strength training into his schedule.

Robbie’s comments follow a US study which recently highlighted a potential link between Semaglutide-based drugs and a rare optic nerve condition that can lead to blindness.

Although scientists remain divided over how significant the risk is, hundreds of reports have been logged in the UK referencing vision problems. 

Robbie has previously admitted he had gone from weighing 13st 13lb down to 12st 1lb while using the appetite suppressant. 

Speaking to The Times, he said: ‘Babe, I’m on Ozempic…Well, something like Ozempic. It’s like a Christmas miracle. I’ve gone from 13st 13lb to 12st 1lb. 

‘And I need it, medically. I’ve been diagnosed with type 2 self-loathing.

‘It’s shockingly catastrophic to my mental health to be bigger. My inner voice talks to me like Katie Hopkins talks about fat people. It’s maddening.’

The popstar, who was once dubbed ‘Blobby Williams,’ described how mean his inner voice can be when he isn’t slim. 

He continued: ‘I need it, medically. I’ve been diagnosed with type 2 self-loathing.

‘It’s shockingly catastrophic to my mental health to be bigger. My inner voice talks to me like Katie Hopkins talks about fat people. It’s maddening.’

Mounjaro and other alternatives like Ozempic and Wegovy is a drug widely used to treat diabetes and manage obesity in adults transform into ‘miracle’ weight loss jab that’s coveted by anyone with a few extra kilos to shed.

The drugs that mimics the actions of GLP-1 – a hormone in the brain that regulates appetite and feelings of fullness.
