Hi,

This is considered an emergency, chances being that there is a recurrence of retinal detachment. This require immediate reattaching the retina. Floaters are part of same pathology.

Though such detachments are not associated with pain and discomfort. What is to be done is that an appointment with your retina doctor is to be urgently booked and the retina is to be examined in detail and further management done on the basis of findings there of.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
