Dear
If she has this high astigmatism, i'm scared she would lose her power to see if not corrected with glasses. She is not complaining because she has normal vision in right eye. The left eye would get lazy if not corrected and eventually get squint. Keep her diet right but please have her glasses done.
Thank you.....Hope I helped.
