Till the time your vision is good.  No need to worry. The eye number is related to the eyeball length.  As your height stabilizes,  the number also stabilzes.  So wait till the age of 18-21. After that there are many options available if you dont want to continue with ur glasses
Next Steps
regular check ups

Hi, your power keeps increasing as you get older till about 18-19 yrs of age. that's part of the growth process. The increase in power is related to more of near work, gadget use and frequent rubbing of your eyes.
Next Steps
avoid rubbing your eyes. don't spend too much time with your gadgets like mobile phone, laptop or TV. Take breaks in between.
