harry having glasses is fine. he was a kid who was used to wearing glasses and didn't exactly have money for surgery. there were probably spells to improve vision but these are your eyes we're talking about - you really wouldn't want that spell to backfire or to be performed by someone you don't trust 100%.

also it seemed kind of like the wizard world lacked medical treatment? there were spells for healing and such but there were no dentists? i guess you could treat any ailment with a magical spell or plant or potion but i still think regular medical/dental exams work better at preventing that stuff.

this is kinda the thing about magical worlds. how heavily do you lean into the magic aspect? do the characters rely on it so much that they forgo logical steps like preventative medical care? do they not rely on it heavily enough and somehow not think to fix every little thing about themselves and everything around them until the world is perfect and no one needs to leave their bubble? i can see how that can be tricky for an author trying to strike a good balance.

MTE I think wizards would prefer a muggle do the surgery/treatment than use a spell that can backfire worse than in the muggle world.
