Former Texas A&M player, coach Gene Stallings says peripheral vision lost in right eye after recent mild stroke

After suffering a stroke last Thursday, former Texas A&M player and coach Gene Stallings said his right eye's peripheral vision vanished.

"The bottom line is I've just lost my peripheral vision to the right. You can be three inches to my right and I just can't see you," Stallings told WBRC from his hospital bed. "I don't think it can be reversed. I think I just have to learn to live with it."

According to WBRC, the 82-year-old was originally taken to the emergency room following his spike in blood pressure. Stallings suffered the mild stroke before a banquet last Thursday in Montgomery, Alabama.
