It's scary to suddenly lose sight in an eye. In December, I had a detached retina. Saw a doctor immediately, who sent me to a retinal surgeon the next day. She operated the next day, and my vision is getting close to normal.

You might have the same thing. If that's the diagnosis, they'll want to do the surgery ASAP. Best of luck with this.
