The Nature Boy is already back out. Ric Flair, 77, was seen in public wearing a taped-on eye patch just days after he was hospitalized following a fall in Tampa, according to TMZ.

Flair reportedly posted one of the photos himself, grinning on a crowded street, and another shot showed him seated at a bar with the patch still on, per TMZ.

NBC News reported that Flair fell outside a Tampa restaurant last Friday, cutting his head and eye, and spent the night at Tampa General Hospital. Hours earlier, he had said he was dealing with a blood clot in his leg, which led him to cancel a convention appearance in Seattle. He said a procedure was scheduled to treat the affected vein.

"I Will Be Okay!" Flair wrote on Instagram, saying he is focused on healing and recovery.
