Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It can be a hole tear or peripheral detachment of retina. Funduscopy is to be done and retinal condition is to be reviewed after 15 days. It can be imminent detachment of retina.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
