Reflecting on the ordeal, Bocelli has said in the past: As a child I was very lively and uncontrollable, I loved playing football and one day during a match, I was hit violently in the face with a ball on my right eye, the only one which I could see light and colour with.
"The doctors tried to cure me with various operations and they even used leeches but there was nothing that could be done."
With a continued passion for music, Bocelli refused to give up on his dreams and started to learn how to read music through braille. Giving a rare insight into his process, a few years ago Bocelli shared: You see, learning a part is easy but it is a different thing to have the part in your throat, as we say.
For the difficult sections I use a Braille score, otherwise when I have something to study I have my pianist Carlo come to the house every day.
