I've had refractive surgery for my highly myopic eye, but I can't stop worrying about the long-term risks. Even though everything seems fine now, I keep fearing I might go blind someday. How do I deal with this constant anxiety about my eye condition?

It's natural to feel anxious about potential long-term risks after refractive surgery, even if your vision is currently good. While refractive surgery like LASIK and PRK can significantly improve vision, there are potential long-term risks to be aware of. Understanding these risks and discussing them with your doctor can help ease your worries.
