The film star described the pain from the infection as excruciating.
Aigbe also referred to it as one of the most significant challenges she faced during the film production.
She shared a photo of her eye during the infection.
She said, “I woke up one morning on set and my eyes were like this… We couldn’t film; we had to break the set. We couldn’t film; we had to take a break on set.
“The pain was excruciating. I was hospitalised; in fact it was a whole lot of challenge. Doctors said it was a severe infection. It was a whole lot. A whole lot,” she continued.
“It has been an experience on this journey with ‘Thinline’. A whole lot of challenges, a whole lot but in all I still give God the glory. In all these I am still standing and will keep pushing. This movie has taken a lot of hard work, pain, blood and sweat.”
She thanked everyone who has watched ‘Thin Line’ in cinemas while urging those who haven’t seen it to do so, assuring them they will truly enjoy it.
“Big thank you to everyone who has seen ‘Thinline’ in cinemas and I am loving the reviews so far. If you are yet to see it make it a date with this amazing movie you will love it,” she added.
