Hello and welcome,
Over the years we've had several members qualify as doctors, though I don't know what specialism they went into. And there's one or two who are currently in med school though I don't know how often they look at the forum with all the studying they have to do! If you're getting adequate vision with spectacles, it sounds as though your KC is quite mild and, with luck, won't progress very far. So while becoming a surgeon may not be the best option, that still leaves lots of possibilities.
All the best
Anne
