Fetty Wap was born with glaucoma in both eyes. He revealed in 2015 that doctors were unable to save his left eye and instead fitted him with an ocular prosthesis.
As it turns out, Fetty Wap has only had one eye for most of his life. Although some rumours were suggesting that he lost his eye in a shooting, the truth is that it was the result of an accident when he was still quite young.
Is Fetty Wap Completely Blind?
Fetty Wap is not completely blind. He got into an accident when he was little and it gave him congenital glaucoma in both eyes.
He said in an interview that, “the doctor saved one, I was blessed to still have my vision”.
He also clarified that he fully embraced the outcome of his eyes. He said, “I’m probably one of the first rappers/ singers to come on the scene with one eye and be comfortable with it”.
