You are using RT eye around-4.25d&Lt eye around -14 D,high myopic powered eye has unhealthy retina & no of rods in peripheral parts of retina are less in number which are responsible for dark adaptation (night vision),it means you have poor night vision adaptability with Lt eye in comparison to RT eye whose power is just -4.25D.It happens with every high myopic person ,you should use correct prescribed power. In daily diet you should take balanced diet & lots of green vegetables.
