one of my biggest fears is going blind and I know round worm can cause Toxocariasis, so very concerned if i ever got round worms in my tank would they effect me?
 
Unless you are drinking the water or eating the fish I suspect you have no reason for concern. As an extra matter of caution remember to wash your hands after maintenance. Good luck.
