I really do feel for you!!!
Its too early to tell how your left eye with fail. It takes up to a year for maximum vision to return to the eye after a RD. Also you may develop a cataract and need cataract surgery.
The prognosis for good or normal vision is always worse if the macula is detached or develops a hole or epiretinal membrane.
Hang in there and good luck.
