Denise Welch shocked her Loose Women co-stars during Thursday afternoon’s episode when she detailed her secret health problem.
The 66-year-old TV personality said she was completely “scared” after undergoing “life-changing” surgery on her eyes.
Denise underwent lens replacement surgery because she was tired of wearing and cleaning her glasses all the time.
He said he couldn’t even see the audience or the autocue if he didn’t have his trademark black-framed glasses on.
The actress said: “I had surgery to replace my lenses. I’m fed up with wearing glasses all the time and them being dirty. I can’t keep them clean so I’m completely fed up with it.”
Denise Welch, 66, shocked her Loose Women co-stars during Thursday afternoon’s episode when she detailed her secret health problem.
The TV personality said she was completely “freaked out” after undergoing “life-changing” surgery on her eyes.
He added: “I can honestly say it’s freaking me out a little bit because I don’t normally see the crowd well from here unless I put my glasses on. I can see the autocue.
“It’s amazing! I haven’t had the one that allows me to read, so I still have to wear glasses for that.”
Speaking about the procedure, she said: “It was amazing, the surgeon talked me through the whole process. It was a bit like being in a spaceship, he showed me the whole process, but if you’re thinking about doing it, go for it.”
Denise, who has been an active panellist on the show since 2005, recently claimed that her time on Loose Women had a “ripple effect” on her acting career due to her “opinionated” views.
In a recent interview in The number with Darren KennedyDenise said: “I think resilience is a good word for me, yeah. Yeah, I think so. I think it’s always been about, as you get older in this business, you stay relevant, you know?”
“And for me, doing Loose Women has been wonderful. Does that affect your acting career? Yes, it does. You know, if you become known for being a very opinionated person.”
She added: “And also because of Loose Women, my party life and everything else was played out in front of a lot of people, so it had a knock-on effect on my acting career.”
“But it’s also given me other opportunities that my acting career wouldn’t have given me. You know, forays into reality TV, some bad, some good.”

Denise teased a new look during Tuesday’s episode of Loose Women after the panel joked she would “undergo a transformation” in the ad break.
She was joined by fellow hosts Ruth Langsford, Coleen Nolan and Brenda Edwards as they discussed women’s experiences with hair loss.
Ruth explained how she gets hair extensions to enhance the thickness of her hair and often wonders if she should wear it long.
Sharing her thoughts, Denise said she didn’t believe older women wore their hair long, which motivated her to go for her own makeover.
As promised after the break, she returned to the studio waltzing in a long blonde wig, much to the amusement of her castmates.
