Please note,  since she is growing,  her number is bound to increase as long as growth happens(till she turns to am adult),  which will be around 21yrs.. U can't arrest the growth,  but what u can definitely do is improve the general health of the eyes..  Give her one raw carrot each day or any other food rich in vitamin A..  Alternatively please check for yoga exercises for the eye which will help in the overall health of the eye..
