‘The View’ Fight Over Whoopi Goldberg’s Poor Health Breaks Out

But now that she’s back, a health issue of hers came up on the show. Keep reading to find out why a fight broke out about her poor health.
Whoopi Goldberg Slams President Trump For Her Health Issues
At 70 years old, Whoopi Goldberg is finally feeling the effects of aging. After her return to New York City from her trip to Italy, she raged against President Trump for her health issues. Upon her return to The View, she resumed her attacks on the current administration.
On the December 2nd episode of The View, Joy Behar called Trump’s cabinet picks the most “unqualified administration” in history. Whoopi Goldberg chimed in with a criticism of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who serves as Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services.
The View moderator slammed the cost of prescription medicine. “So, RFK, you really want to do something for the people? You really want to get people understanding what could be done with the power of the government?. Make sure we’re not overpaying insanely for our drugs. Why are we paying the way we are? Fix that,” she said.
Whoopi Goldberg revealed that she paid €20 for eye drops that cost her $1,000 in the United States. “I would like to go to Europe, not having to worry about not having my medication,” she added.
Fight Over The View Host’s Poor Health Breaks Out
Whoopi Goldberg has worn glasses for decades. She stopped wearing them for a while, but one viewer noticed that she’s back to wearing her glasses and wondered what happened.
The fan asked on social media, “She gradually started wearing them again, and now wears them full time, and seemingly has severe issues, requiring special eye drops. Was that because of the surgery? Did her eyes get worse than before?”
However, they prefaced the question by saying they don’t really like Whoopi Goldberg on The View. A fight broke out in the comments, with several people wondering why the OP cared about her eyes if they didn’t like the host in the first place.
- “Since you obviously don’t care for her, why do you even care about her eyes? Sheesh.”
- “If Whoopi (or anyone) has a medical condition, it’s really not your business let alone the public viewers.”
- “It’s none of our business why she is wearing glasses.”
- “I don’t understand at all why you care. They’re her eyes.”
- “well she is getting up there in age..shes 70 and going to have some deterioration”
What’s Wrong With Her Eyes?
Whoopi Goldberg ditched her glasses in 2023 after having eye correction surgery. She revealed that she had surgery for presbyopia, an aging-related loss of the eye’s ability to focus on close-up objects. It can cause blurry vision and eye strain.
Whoopi Goldberg, en tournage en Europe la semaine dernière, a découvert que ses gouttes pour les yeux coûtent 20€ ici au lieu de…..1000$ aux USA.

“I had an operation and they replaced the lens and the lens they replaced it with is kind of like my eyeglass lens,” she told PEOPLE magazine at the time.
Whoopi Goldberg hasn’t said why she’s wearing glasses again, but she might have eye problems if she needs eye drops regularly. Do you think fans of The View deserve an answer or is it none of anyone’s business?

Whoopi needs to dig a hole and crawl into it. She is so disrespectful so ugly she wouldn’t know the truth. If it hit her in the face there is no room for her here on earth.
