There must be problem fowich you have under gone test. one eye is very small.25. you can have second opinion after test from different clinic and they confirm then you have to use the specs.when you reach 25 then opt for refractive surgery and get rid of specs. but before that you confirm your suitability from refrative surgery doing surgeon

if the refraction is correct you have to wear the specs. you had some problem that i why you had gone for refraction. if you are not convinced then you can go for second refraction. if it is again confirmed then you have no option but to wear the glass. you have not given your age. you had an option of refractive surgery when you crosses 25. this is only if you are averse to wear specs.
