August Alsina recently revealed that he underwent a painful eye surgery after going blind in his left eye and starting to lose sight in his right. The news comes ahead of his upcoming tour with Chris Brown.
The 22-year-old singer reportedly suffers from an undisclosed disease and turned to what looks like a laser procedure to preserve his eyesight.
Despite his circumstances, Alsina expressed gratefulness for the ability to see.
"A lot of things that are so natural to us in life (like waking up and being able to see) we can take it for granted," he wrote on an Instagram post. "Thank God the OG for allowing me to see.. The good the bad the ugly, I'm just glad to see."

Last year, the "I Luv This Sh*t" singer suffered another health scare, collapsing while on stage at NYC's Irving Plaza. He reportedly collapsed as a result of exhaustion and remained in a coma for three days following.
Chris Brown recently announced that he'll be hitting the road for a 4-city tour. His revamped X Live tour will also feature Sevyn Streeter and Omarion, in addition to Alsina.
As noted by Vibe, Breezy and friends will perform a series of shows beginning on June 10 in Hidalgo, Texas.
