If vision in both eyes is 6/6 than there is nothing to worry. Should wear the glasses regularly. The glass number  generally keeps changing till 18 years.
Next Steps
Should get his retina checked by retina specialist at least once to rule out weak areas in retina requiring treatment.
Health Tips
Should get glass number checked every 6 months and retina once a year.
