Imran Khan has lost 85% of the sight in his right eye
Pakistan’s jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan has lost 85% of the sight in his right eye, his lawyer told the Supreme Court, an ordeal that adds to legal and political challenges the leader is already battling. Khan, 73, has been in jail since August 2023, serving a 14-year sentence on corruption charges, one of dozens of cases he says were made up in order for the army to keep him out of politics, a charge the military denies. “He has been left with only 15% vision in his right eye,” Khan’s lawyer Salman Safdar said in Thursday’s report seen by Reuters, quoting the former cricket star turned politician. The fact-finding report cited Khan as saying he had been complaining about “experiencing persistent blurred and hazy vision” since October 2025, but that jail authorities took no action. Safdar submitted his report after a two-hour meeting with Khan ordered by the Supreme Court, which set a February 16 deadline for authorities to allow Khan access to his personal physician for the report on his condition.
