My question Is my kid will get the chance of this kinda of genetic disorder?
HI, Thanks for asking. I understand your concern.  Refractory errors are genetic / environmental in origin. As you have family history of getting eyesight problem, but your husband does not have such problem. There are 50% chances that your baby will have the problem, Please don't be stressed. Correction of the defect is easily possible for the baby too. So hope for the best & be positive for present.  - You should take vitamin E supplements & also omega 3 fatty acid daily to facilitate healthy eye development of baby.  Thanks.
