身为吉他手,Jeff Golub与摇滚明星Rod Stewart和Billy Squier一起走红。作为一名乐队领导人,他已经出版了九张个人专辑而且在全球各地都做过巡回演出。职业生涯保持成功和成立家庭一直是对艺人们来说最大的挑战。然而在经过30多年的摸爬滚打后,Golub却面临着他自己的难题：失明。
According to the guitarist,Jeff says he was diagnosed with a collapse of the optic nerve., but was told his chances of going totally blind were low.
按照吉他手的标准,他被诊断出患上了视神经障碍,但全盲的机率却很低。
''I lost sight in my right eye and I thought, 'OK, a lot of people get along without sight in one eye, I can deal with this.' I wasn't even telling people. I just wouldn't see out of my right eye. And then, just in the beginning of July, the end of June, my left eye started to go."
“我失去了右眼视力，好吧，我想很多人都有一只眼睛看不到，而我一样能处理这个。我甚至没有对任何人说起我的右眼看不到的问题。然而，就在6月底7月初的时候,我的左眼开始也开始出现同样的问题。”
"Then I realized I'd better start telling people about this because I'm going to start bumping into things. There isn't any hiding the fact an more.
“我意识到自己最好让别人知道这件事,因为我正已经开始乱撞东西了。这件事已经没有隐瞒的必要了。
