This may have nothing to do with what is happening to your husband's vision, and you may already know the symptoms of a detaching retina, but I wanted to respond to this thread, just in case.
A detaching retina can present with a shower of many new floaters, flashes of light, and there can be shadows or the appearance of a curtain crossing the field of vision. The onset of symptoms is often sudden.
I am not trying to alarm you, but if you think a detaching retina is in progress, please let the office know that when you call. A detaching retina can be reattached but time is of the essence.
I do not know of a specific doctor to recommend, but the sudden onset of new symptoms with vision may need immediate attention. I wish your husband the best care and outcome.
