Popular YouTube creator IShowSpeed is scheduled for surgery on his right eye to address a lingering infection that began to trouble him in 2023. IShowSpeed, who has emerged as one of the most popular figures on both YouTube and Twitch, is known for his energetic personality and a diverse array of content ranging from travel vlogs to gaming discussions.

He faced hospitalization and was warned that the infection could have lasting implications for his vision.

Despite the pain, he continued to engage with his fans by posting updates. This new surgery comes almost two years after the onset of his previous health concerns.
