Some famous people who have achieved success while living with chronic eye conditions include Stevie Wonder, whose blindness is a result of premature Retinopathy, and Ella Fitzgerald, who suffered from Diabetic Retinopathy. Famed author Stephen King, and Dame Judi Dench have Age-related Macular Degeneration, and pop singer Brittany Howard of the band Alabama Shakes is blind in one eye as a result of Retinoblastoma, a type of eye cancer.
