New Info . . .
The blindness is probably a rumor loosely based on a propensity for a particular eye disease Mr. King has, only a propensity, not the actual disease. Actually, I just found this out a few moments ago at his official web site which has answers to many questions about Stephen King. The link to the site is:
Stephen King Offical Web Site
I heartily recommend this site to any Stephen King fans. You can also sign up for a Stephen King Newsletter at that site.

I read somewhere that he's losing his sight.
At some point, King is apparently going to end up 100% blind, due to some illness with his eyes. I cannot remember exactly where or when I read this, but the news came to light after he almost died in that accident a couple of years ago. He said he knew a time would come when he wouldn't be able to see enough to write any more, and I guess the time is finally coming.
Sad, isn't it?
