After the above tweet sparked concerns about his eyes, several reports as to why emerged which detailed that he suffered an eye injury while he was reporting in Kyiv, Ukraine, which was in the thick of the war in March 2022. While he was busy covering the continuous Russian attack on Ukraine, an unforeseen incident occurred which caused damage to his eyes.
Though it’s exactly not clear what happened, reports suggest it was either a piece of debris that struck John Roberts in the eyes or shrapnel from a nearby explosion that got him there. Whatever the reason, the point is that the Fox News correspondent’s eyes were harmed in the unforeseen incident which created an air of panic initially. But as a professional who was reporting from a war zone, he was not a stranger to the underlying dangers of reporting from the conflict zone and he was quite resourceful in dealing with the incident.
Did John Roberts From Fox News Have to Get Surgery On His Eyes?
Following the terrifying incident, John Roberts was immediately taken by the Fox News team to the nearest hospital in the neighborhood to get him the required medical attention in order to avoid further damage to his eyes. Fortunately for him, the injuries, though frightening at the beginning because he couldn’t open one of his eyes, turned out to be not as serious as they thought. He was relieved after that as he had thought that there was a possibility that he had to get surgery to remove whatever it was that got inside his eyes.

After learning that there was nothing to be scared about, John Roberts tweeted that he was “doing okay” to reassure the general public and colleagues who had been worried about him. He took a couple of days off to give rest to his eyes and then, he was back in the war zone reporting the Russian invasion. Back wearing an eye patch and looking more determined than before.
John Roberts’ eyes are fine. At the very most, the injury he sustained then seems to have affected one of his pupils which is bigger than the other one. However, we cannot be entirely sure that it was the injury that affected his pupils because he has never confirmed it and it could be because of other reasons as well. We just know that his eyes were not always like that. Because his pupils are of different sizes, it looks like his eyes are of different colors.
On a totally unrelated note, did you know that there were rumors that the Fox News journalist John Roberts had surgery to lift his eyes in 2018? His eyes did seem much rejuvenated after (they weren’t of different colors then) but how much truth there is to the rumors, we can’t tell now because his eyes have been through a lot since then.
Looks like John Roberts from @FoxNews got a eye lift. Seems legit. He’ll be fine so long as he stops the coloring of his hair. @johnrobertsFox pic.twitter.com/GqcZtBMstK
