There is a doctor in California that has worked on David Reid, Shazzon Bradley and other athletes. Bradley had both retinas detached and returned to the ring. The doctor uses a certain type of lube for the job, not stitches. Google Shazzon Bradley, and you may be able to find the doctor. Take Care, and get surgery before fighting again. You are 21 you have many many great days ahead of you.

I dont box but man u gotta listen to your doctor, they know exactly what they're talking about. If he says stop, stop. It sounds like boxing is a bit of an addiction for you, so dont be like an alcoholic who gets told to stop drinking or he will die, and then gets pissed a week later thinking a few drinks wont do any harm.
You can still do the exercise work, the pad work etc, just no sparring/fighting.
If thats not enough, find a new hobby that is keeps you fit and amused, but wont **** up your vision for life.Comment

Why don't you just work out at the gym, and not spar, or fight competitively. It's a hard pill to swallow, but always put your health above anything else. My sister was recently involved in a serious accident, and she may yet have to have her arm, and foot amputated. What I'm saying is, health and life is the most important thing you will ever own.
What if you lost an eye? Even watching boxing would be difficult.Comment
