Gena Tew Instagram model who is currently battling AIDS has reportedly revealed she has regained some of her vision after undergoing a successful eye procedure.
The model who cried out about going blind in one eye amid her battle with AIDS, tells TMZ, her vision is partially restored after she underwent a successful procedure on her eyes Thursday in Memphis.
Gena, 27, disclosed that prior to the surgery she was totally blind in her left eye, but now she’s already able to see some shapes, and is optimistic her vision will be completely restored.
Gena’s loss of sight was due to an AIDS – defining illness Cytomegalovirus retinitis. It causes vision loss and blindness in patients with AIDS.
Gena tells TMZ she is still receiving tons of support online, including a donation from R&B singer Ari Lennox via her GoFundMe page.
