    I would see another vet. From sight to blindness in just a few days is something to be concerned about. It is possible that your cat is in renal (kidney) failure. Renal failure can increase blood pressure greatly. Which in turn, if high enough, can cause blindness because the pressure in the veins causes vessels to rupture in the eye, causing blindness. There may be other explanations, but I would take the cat to another vet.

    first how old is your cat?

    you dont mention your cat's age.. but you same that your vet is not worried.. so i assume this is a long time vet of your cat..

    Where you think your cat is healthy .. age sometimes plays us all for fools and problems like eye issues in cats can come on sudden.. you should go to a second vet.. but your vet should of explained the reason or findings a little more to you..
