there are two aspects,one with the natural course of growth + powers keep on decreasing, two one of the eyes with a higher power develops less so you land up with hypermetropic amblyopia,which has to be treated vigorously and at this age gives very good results,for this you have to contact an orthoptic clinic in your area as the treatment is prolong
