Hello,
The power of glasses keep changing due to change in the shape and size of the eyeball or the cornea irrespective of wearing of glasses. In your case too the power has changed in spite of you wearing glasses, due to change in the size and shape of the eyeball or cornea. The cause of this change is genetically determined.
Continue wearing glasses.
