What can i do if my myopia is really bad, are there ways to slow it down?

Not stable?: It would be unusual for someone your age to have unstable myopia. See an ophthalmologist to evaluate why it is changing. A small amount of change, such that you need to change your glasses prescription every 2-3 years, is normal.
