Overview
- Kai Noll noticed rapidly worsening sight in one eye while preparing for a riding scene tied to upcoming Karl-May-Festspiele work.
- An ophthalmic exam found a tumor on his eyelid, prompting immediate surgery in Cologne by Prof. Dr. Dr. Ludwig Heindl.
- Pathology identified the tumor as benign, and Noll reports he can see clearly again following the procedure.
- His doctor said the unchecked growth would have continued, compromising three-dimensional vision and making stage work or even simple tasks difficult.
- Noll says he is back to work with roles scheduled at the Karl-May-Festspiele from June 20, a finished thriller titled The Goodman, and a planned stage role in Dracula, and he does not rule out a future return to Unter uns.
