There is no natural treatment for this - left unattended, the eye will almost inevitably lose all vision irreversibly - not just blurriness, but complete darkness with no going back. In order to preserve sight in the affected eye, by not allowing extension of the retinal tear, either laser surgery or open surgery must be done by a qualified ophthalmologist. If you have a retinal tear or are experiencing its symptoms, call or have someone call a retinal specialist as soon as possible - do not wait - and remain as still as possible before seeing him or her. Symptoms include a sudden explosion of thousands of floaters, a dark shadow in the vision (especially one that is progressing), and / or flashes of light when you move your eye or your head. I have had this happen in *both* eyes and it is extremely serious and urgent; the longer you wait, the more likely your vision will be impacted, up to and including blindness.
