Harry Reid will undergo eye surgery at GW Hospital on Monday.

Doctors told the Senate Minority Leader on Tuesday that he will need surgery to fully restore vision in his right eye, according to a release. He had injured his eye, broken several ribs and broken bones in his face during an exercising accident on New Year’s Day.

“His broken ribs are healing well and he will continue to maintain a busy schedule next week as his right eye heals,” Kristen Orthman, a spokeswoman for Reid, said in a statement Wednesday.

The top Democrat returned to D.C. on Tuesday but did not attend the State of the Union. He had been working from his Nevada home while recovering from his injuries.
