Hi,
The doctor has advised correctly. I think that you should follow some more advices like watching less tv, watching from atleast 6 feet, give vitamin A rich foods like mango, carrot, cabbage, sweet potato, tomato. The number can decrease or remain static if you follow above advices.
I hope this has helped you.
Take care.
