Hello,
You will have to go for the check up and treatment wherever you are immediately. Prognosis is better if done quickly. Do not wait.
Looks like you are retaining central portion of vision, if it should not worsen do not wait two weeks, immediately get it rectified, treatment options vary depending on your retina and extent of detachment.
