Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 65 year old male. This weekend I experienced seeing about a dozen black spots in a small area of my field of vision in my right eye only. Today that grew to my entire right eye field of vision along with larger curved black areas popping up in what I would define as my peripheral vision area.
The symptoms are suggestive of retinal detachment and need urgently to be treated possibly with laser the earlier you visit an ophthalmologist the better it would be.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ashaq Parrey, General & Family Physician
