This Sunday, May 5, 2024, Hélène Ségara was the guest of "Sept à quatre" on TF1. The singer returned to the health problems she has encountered for years.

A fight that has lasted for more than a decade. Guest of "Seven to Eight" on TF1, Hélène Ségara spoke about an unidentified eye disease from which she has suffered for years. This fight against the disease began a little over ten years ago and has a strong impact on the singer's daily life, indicates Télé Loisirs.

"I still don't know what I'm fighting against"

Hélène Ségara was in front of Audrey Crespo-Mara and answered the journalist's questions, the opportunity for her to reveal the difficult life with her illness. "All started in April 2013. I was coming back from Russia where I had worked. And I woke up one morning with a curtain literally in front of my eyes, not understanding what was happening to me", she explained. "I could no longer live a normal daily life, I could no longer see my phone screen, I could no longer read, I could no longer peel a fruit", she continued.

"From there, everything went from there.< /strong> I had implants in my eyes, I had around twenty interventions, 22 in total. I was more or less stabilized, relates the singer. Although she thought the situation was improving, her state of health suddenly deteriorated. "Two years ago, everything changed again. I realized that I was really losing one of my eyes and that nothing was working anymore, she confides .

If the illness ruins her daily life, since the singer only sees in one eye, she struggles to put a name to her pathology.  "At first we said it was a tumor, then we said it was multiple sclerosis. Then, I heard all kinds of things, we looked for everything related to autoimmune disease: lumbar punctures, biopsies… hellip; In fact, I still don't know what I'm fighting against", she says on the television channel.

The one who played Esmeralda, in the musical Notre-Dame de Paris at the end of the 90s, had already had to fight another health problem. The singer had lost her voice, which required her to undergo laser surgery, the magazine said.
