There are several fantasy fandoms I'd like to visit, but I'm not sure retiring to any of them is a good idea. I'm very nearsighted with a family history of other eye problems ranging from glaucoma to spontaneous retinal detachment. I need a good eye doctor available.

This unfortunately knocks Pern out of the running as well. Unless AIVAS trained a few Healers in eye surgery before he shut down -- I haven't kept up with her son's novels.

Star Trek would be a good option. There's no question about medical science being able to keep me seeing. The Federation is portrayed as having gone beyond money; most likely I could spend my remaining years doing historical research or something else fun instead of worrying about finances.

There's several planets in Doctor Who that would probably work out as well. I'd just have to see if they're scheduled for Dalek, Cyberman, or other nasty visitors.
