Your eyesight is gradually worsening because the eyeball is slowly elongating, which is often influenced by genetics, age, or prolonged near work such as reading or screen use. You should continue wearing your prescribed glasses, take breaks from prolonged near tasks, ensure good lighting, and visit an eye doctor to discuss options such as special contact lenses or drops that may help slow further worsening of your eyesight.
