Hello
The refraction test reading of yours show myopia of -1.0 dioptres.
This requires use of spectacles to correct this refractive error.
Since the refraction test was done long back this requires repeat testing of the refractive error to find out the present refractive error and correction.
Hence I advice you to consult your optometrist or ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
