Robbie Williams<\/a> has said he fears the weight loss job Mounjaro<\/a> is \u2018making him blind\u2019 after he realised his vision had suddenly become blurry.<\/p>\n

The 51-year-old singer admitted the deteriorating vision is now affecting him on stage, as he struggles to make out the faces of fans to connect during emotional points in his show.<\/p>\n

The Take That alum has now said he wants to speak about his experience with the weight loss injections to encourage better research into their side effects before they\u2019re more widely used. <\/p>\n

Robbie said he didn\u2019t initially connect the issue to the injections he takes, but has since visited the opticians for a new glasses prescription. <\/p>\n

He told The Sun<\/a> he had been an \u2018early adaptor\u2019 of the jabs, but added of his eyesight: \u2018It\u2019s been blurry for a while now, and it\u2019s only getting worse.\u2019<\/p>\n

His comments come after a US<\/a> study discovered a potential link between Semaglutide, which is the active ingredient in some fat jabs, and an eye condition that can lead to blindness.<\/p>\n

Robbie said he first noticed the change while watching a game of American football, during which the players looked like \u2018blobs on a green field in front of me\u2019.<\/p>\n

It has also started to affect his touring, particularly the She\u2019s The One segment of his show, in which he serenades a fan. He\u2019s now admitted that he can barely see the people he\u2019s performing to, even if the audience remains unaware. <\/p>\n
