MEL B: "I WAS NOT OK"

Mel B spoke about the frightening loss of vision in her right eye, and the blurring in her left eye, which was later diagnosed by a specialist as uveitis - a form of eye inflammation that could be caused by infection, injury, or an autoimmune or inflammatory disease.

The 43-year-old singer is now taking medication and eye drops for the inflammation and is on her way to a full recovery.
