The perception of a sudden increase in floaters or spots and the appearance of a shadow or curtain descending over the field of vision are hallmark symptoms of retinal detachment. This condition involves the separation of the retina from its underlying supportive tissue, which disrupts its function and can lead to vision loss. The other options, while potentially indicative of other eye issues, are not primarily associated with retinal detachment.
