I'm a year older than you and have been seeing a retinologist, on a regular basis for a decade, on a different matter. It's my understanding, with some retinal problems, time is of the essence -- a second opinion couldn't hurt, get to a retinologist, ASAP.
Yes, seeing the Doc immediately is important. I'm satisfied that the exam was thorough enough. These people do surgery and cataract implants. But I'm scheduled to see my Retinologist (Opthomologist specializing in retinal matters) in a couple of months and I'll take your advice and get a second opinion.

Per my Doctor: If you ever experience symptons consistent with dark shadows intruding into your vision (not talking about floaters) then call ASAP. Day or night. Retinal damage, serious emergency.
