Jack Osbourne, 25, best known as the son of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Osbourne said he has lost 60% of vision in his right eye. The diagnosis comes after his fiancee gave birth to their daughter a few weeks ago.

Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system. Symptoms can include loss of muscle control, difficulties with vision and balance, and paralysis.

Sharon Osbourne spoke about her son's diagnosis on her show "The Talk".
