disqualifying medication

I accidentally taken a disqualifying medication prescribed from my GP and had not crosschecked with the aviation authority's list, out of pure negligence and carelessness. It is now in my medical record in a period that i was flying. I am now worried/concerned that this would haunt me if anything ever happens in the future. what should i do.

Not so much the medication, as the disease state being treated that is likely to be a problem…

I get where you're coming from! When I was thinking about becoming a pilot, I had some vision concerns too. If you can correct your eyesight to better than 20/20 with glasses, that’s a great sign. Just keep in mind that you'll need to keep up with regular eye exams, and any changes in your vision could impact your Class 1 status later on. It's definitely worth talking to an aviation medical examiner—they can give you the best advice for your specific situation.
