I have a custom field on a custom object having text length 50. This object already has about 10K records.
My requirement here is to increase the text length to length 255. But I am not sure if I do that, the value of this field on 10K records will be reset to blank.
Can you pl help confirming if I have a problem here?

You won't have a problem with increasing the size of a text field.
If you decrease the size of a text field, the data will be truncated to the new field size.
