Should I Continue To Take Omeprezole For GERD Even When My Health Has Improved?

I am taking omeprozole for GERD. It is working fine and my health has improved. I hav. e taken it for a month, but when I went in to see the doctor he prescribed me 90 days more of it. I told him that the drug is working fine, but my vision seems to be affected by it. He says not to worry about. Eye exam revealed nothing. Should I keep taking it? I am forward deployed with no specialist on hand.
