Answers:
Hi---

You are slightly nearsighted in the right eye, and require no power
in the left!.

You don't have cyl and axis because you don't have astigmatism!.

You have the slightest RX that can be made!.

Some people wear -15!.00, which is very strong!.

you might notice things will be a little sharper with the glasses,
and you might not!.

Many people with this rx don't bother getting eyeglasses

the prescription that you have is very very mild and really you don't require glasses
sph =sphere,this means that your eye is shaped spherically like a round ball and only needs correction here of -0!.25!.
0!.00 = in optical terms plano and needs no correction at all
as for your question on cyls axis and prism you really have no need to worry about it as you simply don't require it!.
everyones eye exam is different and you are fortunate enough not to need any specs at all really!.
the worst prescription that i have filled in my lab is -27!.00 and the person actually need contacts to wear under that aswell!!

sph means sphere power!. i have a bad eye sight too!. my right eye is -0!.20 and my left is -0!.25!. that's not the worst you can get!. but it is pretty bad number!. i dont wear eye glasses and im really struggling!. im using size 12 font and if i move little bit backward, i cannot recognize the word or letter on this monitor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

-0!.25 means you are very very slightly short sighted in that eye!. I don't know what sph means but I know what the numbers mean!. There is no worst you can get really I don't think!.!.!.!.maybe 15!? Something like that I think!. 0!.25 is the smallest number, I'd be suprised if you needed glasses!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

0!.25 means a quarter of a diaptre, which is the smallest unit of change that is measured in an eyetest!. if your left is 0 and your right -!.25, you have near perfect vision!. What are you worried about!?

the worst you can get is BLIND!Www@Answer-Health@Com
