I know that they can reactivate, and the doctors in my country said there was nothing they could do about it, but I was just checking to see if maybe some doctors in some foreign country had any advice. Thanks for the input, though.

You need to see an eye MD ophthalmologist for a definitive answer but most T Gondi scars are on the retina and cannot be removed. Nevertheless you need to see and be under the care of an ophthalmologist as some of these infections "reactivate".
