What Causes The Constant Increase In Eyesight Of A 24 Year Old?

Hello sir, I am a 24 years old girl. I am using glasses since 11 years. But my eyesight is increasing with time. I consult my doctor about this. He told me to use glasses constantly. Now my eye sight is -7 for right eye and -4.5 for left eye. I want to reduce this atleast to 2.5 to 3. Again here I want to tell you that my right eye is little squint. If i do squint surgery, should my eyesight decrease? Is squint surgery any side effect or bring harm to my eyes in future? Please help
