Vanessa Mdee has finally opened up about seeing from one eye for years without a lot of people knowing anything about it.

She opened up about this on her Instagram live where she admitted that she’s been having a problem with one side of her eye where she can’t see anything from.

Vanessa Mdee openly addressed her eyesight condition after rumors about the singer’s eyes starting to turn squint by bloggers from Tanzania. Some even made a mockery out of her situation.

Vanessa Mdee, 32, was forced to address the issues once again, this time officially after openly talking about the situation with her eyes back in 2019 when she was a judge at East Africa Got Talent show after seeing a blind person performing.

Mdee who is engaged to a Nigerian-American singer and actor Rotimi and currently based in the US admitted on Instagram live that she had pre-existing conditions that led to her losing the functions of one eye.
