Hello
You should first get his vision checked up to make a baseline for his vision. Then, you should consult a vitreo-retinal surgeon who will find out the extent of damage to the retina and prognosis will depend upon his findings.
However, now a days, treatment for detached retina is easily available and you should should hope for the best.
