Fetty Wap has never shied away from the fact that he has only one eye. One rumor has spread that he shot himself in the eye when he was a kid, but this is not actually the case. In reality, Fetty Wap contracted congenital glaucoma as an infant in both eyes, but the doctor was only able to save one eye. He has since embraced his missing eye and does not use a prosthetic one.
