Alaska will wear an eye patch “for a long time”

Alaska, topical this Christmas because Movistar+ has uploaded a documentary about her career, is also in the news for her health. The singer will have to wear an eye patch for weeks, and it won’t be by choice like Madonna from ‘Madame X’.

Just a couple of months after her husband suffered a serious fall at the Horteralia Festival that could have cost him his life, Olvido Gara has suffered an accident while he was at home.

This is what he indicated this week on the Telecinco program TardeAR, as Vertele reports: “I went for a walk around the house and suddenly it looked like a Christmas tree, with many flashes of color, and from there my eye went black.” .

Alaska details: «I have the central vein of the retina affected with a thrombus, which produces edema in the area of ​​the macula, in the center. I don’t see anything. Possible causes are being searched. But looking at the work season, I think it was stress.”

The artist warns that recovery will be slow. “This is not going to be cured overnight. It will be somewhat slow. There doesn’t appear to be any irreversible damage. But these things go slowly. You will be seeing me like this for a long time.”

This Christmas Eve you were able to see Fangoria on television presenting ‘Dramas and comedies’ or a duet with Rosario, in specials that logically and as is usual in these cases, were filmed weeks ago, before the thrombosis.
