hello,
first thing you need to correct you question,because axis will be only in cylindrical and not in spherical,still i can judge that you want to ask whether can you do anything to prevent the rise in number,please do rectify if i am wrong,for your information you cannot do anything for preventing it,if it has to increase it will increase.
thank you

hello mam,
welcome to hcm
its only 0.25 dioptre increase of your power but if you are comfortable with present power you can continue it a cylinder power is to increase clarity of eye.
try checking both eyes individually whether you are comfortable and able to see computer clearly.wear spectacle regularly because non compliance to spectacle can increase your power.
if you would have been my patient i personally advise you to change your spectacle power and wear new glasses as wearing it will increase your clarity and depth perception.
you will be comfortable with new glasses with in 2-3 days.
take care
i hope i answered your query
