This week, Roseanne Barr has revealed she is slowly going blind due to macular degeneration and glaucoma. Former "Roseanne" co-star Sara Gilbert shared her thoughts on THE TALK after talking to her television mom. Watch the clip below!

"She just said that she can still see...it just she can't see as well as she did before...I love Roseanne so much and she's such a strong person and such an important person in my life…We all hate to think of anyone we love dealing with something like this. Eyesight is such a big thing and such a big thing to lose. I know she's a fighter and I know she's strong. I truly believe that if anyone can do it she'll have her sight as long as possible."

CBS's Daytime Emmy Award-nominated talk show THE TALK features a panel of well-known news and entertainment personalities discussing current events, pop culture, contemporary issues, family, celebrity and the trending topics of the day. The daily one-hour series is hosted by Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood and Aisha Tyler. The hosts swap stories, challenge each other on issues and engage the studio audience and viewers at home about events in the headlines and their own homes. Show segments include guest interviews with entertainers and newsmakers, musical performances, cooking demos with celebrity chefs as well as real-world advice and tips from leading experts in fitness, diet, health, home, relationships, finance and fashion. The show was developed by Gilbert, who also serves as executive producer.
