Chef Christine Ha started her life sighted. But when she was in her 20's, her sight started to become blurry. She was misdiagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and even became taking the medication for it, until she found the right doctor who diagnosed her with Neuromyelitis optica, in which a person's own immune system attacks the optic nerves and spinal cord.
As she continued to lose her sight, Chef Ha embraced the changes that she was going through as her vision wained. Losing her sight may have actually been an impetus for Chef Ha to try out for MasterChef, and ultimately win the third season in 2012.
