Though thetestimony of Johnny Depp against Amber Heard in a Virginiacourt has concluded, the speculation continues.

Johnny Depp has previously stated that he is blind like Batman when alluding to his disability. In 2013, the actor informed Rolling Stone that his left eye is completely blind. His right eye, on the other hand, has nearsightedness. Depp has stated that he has never been able to see well and that everything appears blurry to him. “I have never had a proper vision.” In such a condition, the actor stated thathe has had a lot of professional difficulties.

Johnny Depp said that he is legally blind in one eye

Depp revealed in front of the court that he is legally blind in one eye and carried on to detail how his late mother Betty Sue Palmer used to call him names like“cock eye, one eye, anything she could get to demean and humiliate”him. He then said how theemotional abuse caused himmuch morepain than the physical onedid.

“The verbal abuse, the psychological abuse was almost worse than the beatings. The beatings were just physical pain, and physical pain you learn to deal with, you learn to accept it, you learn to deal with it. But the psychological and emotional abuse, that’s what tore us up.”

However, talking about his father in the Virginia Court, we could literally see that gratefulness in his eyes. He said:“He amazingly remained very, very stoic. He stood there and just looked at her while she delivered the pain. And he swallowed it. He took it. There was never one moment, never a moment when my father lost control and attacked my mother or hit my mother, or even said a bad thing to my mother. The things I witnessed were a couple of times where it got too far, I could see his eyes welling up, him staring at her saying nothing. The most that he would do is he would punch a wall.”
