Brief Answer:
Stable refraction

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
As you have already seen some people take longer for refraction to stabilize.That apparently has happened in your case.Now since it has been some tome for both the eyes since the power has not changed,we can rest assured that the power will remain stable.There is a questionable role of maintaining a healthy lifestyle,and that is all you can do to help.
Any further query in this regard,please do get back to me.
