Loose Women star Katie Piper has been forced to ask 'Please don't troll me' as she revealed she had surgery in a bid to save one of her eyes.

The presenter told how she underwent a procedure to reduce the risk of 'losing her left eye' in a candid social media post. Katie took to Instagram on Wednesday (November 22) with a number of images showing her eye after the procedure as she appeared in hospital in a hospital gown, while admitting she still finds operations 'mentally hard' following her acid attack ordeal.

The 40-year-old suffered major injuries and blindness in one eye after she was attacked with acid by her ex-boyfriend Daniel Lynch and accomplice Stefan Sylvestre in 2008.

Following the horrifying ordeal, Katie has tirelessly campaigned for changes to protect the public and has since set up The Katie Piper Foundation.
