1000-lb Sisters Star Amy Undergoes Surgery to Correct Lazy Eye, Video

Star “1000-lb Sisters” Amy Slaton had surgery that had nothing to do with his weight…instead, it was all about vision.

TMZ has obtained an exclusive clip from an upcoming “1000-lb Sisters” episode showing the moment Amy goes under the knife to correct her lazy eye.

In 2015, Amy posted a video on YouTube explaining that she had ocular toxoplasmosis…an eye infection caused by a parasite. It is a very rare eye disease that she has suffered from since birth and which has left her blind in the legal sense of the term.

Doctors had to operate on both eyes of Amy… and her husband, Brian Lovvornwas very nervous when he spoke to a camera crew while waiting for the surgery to finish…revealing that he was very worried that Amy might not wake up from the anesthesia.

Luckily, the surgery was a success…and Amy has a new look…and a little more confidence.

The full episode airs March 3 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC.
