Hello Ma'am. Mostly for everyone the power of the eye stabilizes around 21 years of age and prior to that a change in spectacles power is normal, so nothing to worry about. Just to be on safe side whenever safely possible next meet any nearby Refractive Eye Surgeon for Corneal Topography test just to rule out Keratoconus. Alongwith Nutrition follow proper working pattern, wear Spectacles regularly, avoid rubbing of eyes, adequate sleep and adequate water intake.
