Nollywood actor Mike Ezuruonye undergoes ‘scary’ eye surgery (PHOTO)

According to the 37-year-old actor, he was ‘reluctant’ to share the story because many people do not know what actors go through in their job.

In an Instagram post on Friday, January 24, he disclosed that he had an issue with his pupil as a result of exposure to harsh film production lights which he has experienced over the years.

Not just that; his time spent on mobile devices and computers was a contributing factor.

He said he was ‘scared’ to go through the surgery when doctors advised him but took the courage to undergo a successful eight-hour surgery.

Mike said the ‘scary experience’ made him appreciate God more and would never take him for granted.

He then thanked his loyal fans and warned that they should be wary of imposters who may defraud them.

Mike shared a photo from his surgery with the caption: “Forgive being Reluctant but just had to share..Many don’t know what we go through in the course of our work (FILM MAKING)..Had a growth encroaching the pupil of both eyes cos of over exposure to HARSH movie Production LIGHTS over the Years...(Heard looking into your PHONE/COMPUTER for too long also puts one in Danger)..Advised to get Surgery done,I was Scared...After Surgery, for over 8 hrs ,i was without sight as my eyes were Demanded Tightly Closed,Tightly Shut by the Ophthalmologist Team of Doctors..Hmnnn..These Made me Appreciate more the GIFT of Sight GOD gave me...Goshhhh that I can never ever take for Granted..Scary experience...But GOD is always Faithful..Glad Surgery was SUCCESSFUL and i will be back real soon to my work and Passion...Thanks to my FANS and TRUE SUPPORTERS..(NOTE Pls :Dont adhere to any IMPOSTOR who would want to take advantage to defraud anyone of his or her money...Pls I am Fine and Healing) I love you all always..God Bless.”
