What Causes Loss Of Vision And Sense Of Smell?

My dad lost vision in one eye yesterday along with his sense of smell. He went to an eye doctor today in his small town, and she found that he has lost most of his vision in his other eye too now. He did not mention loss of sense of smell to the doctor. He had a cornea implant about 5 years ago. He is not acting concerned at all, but I am.

thorough examination of eye is required to rule out cause of vision loss.
corneal graft failure could be the reason.
