Scary Spice Mel B announced last week that she went blind in her right eye and her left eye was blurry. She went to a hospital and was diagnosed with iritis in her right eye and uveitis in her left eye. The press initially said this was a common occurrence for her due to her “eye herpes” and that she was fine. But she took to social media and blasted that report. She said that it was not a common occurrence for her and it was actually a severe issue and had scared her deeply, but is now under control. She did not address the “eye herpes” part of the story.
