You can try some simple eye exercises, eat healthy food like carrots and green vegetables, and reduce mobile or TV time. Also, look far away things often, like trees or sky. These can help eyes become stronger. But please also talk to eye doctor sometimes, to check properly.

Maintaining diet:
•Vitamin A enriched diet- Eat carrot,spinach, almonds, leafy vegetables.
Eye Hygiene:
•Wash the eyes with cool water(not so hot, not so cold) for 10-15 min in regular intervals.
•After washing clean the eyes by just tapping, don’t put pressure and rub your eyes.
•Don’t rub the eyes.
•It’s better to use powerless specs, while travelling in 2 wheelers to avoid dryness of eye.
Do eye exercises:
•Rubbing both palms and make warmth and keep above the closed eyes.
•Rotate the eyeballs in clockwise and anticlockwise direction.
•Focus on far objects and look the near objects.

Having -1.0D means you have mild myopia (nearsightedness).
While there’s no guaranteed way to completely reverse glasses power naturally, some habits and lifestyle changes can help reduce eye strain and possibly slow progression, or slightly improve your vision:

  1. Eye exercises:
    -Focus shifting: Look at something close, then far away, repeatedly
    -Palming: Rub your hands, cup over closed eyes, relax for a few minutes
    -Blink often to keep eyes moist

  2. Take breaks from screens:
    Follow the 20-20-20 rule — every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds

  3. Good lighting: Avoid reading or working in dim light

  4. Healthy diet: Eat foods rich in vitamins A, C, E, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants (carrots, leafy greens, fish)

While there’s no guaranteed way to completely eliminate nearsightedness (-1.0D) naturally, you can try some habits to potentially slow down its progression and maintain healthy vision:

  1. Follow the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look away from screens and focus on something 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
  2. Practice eye exercises: Rotate your eyes, focus on a point and then shift your gaze, or do eye circles.
  3. Maintain a balanced diet: Include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lutein, and zeaxanthin, such as leafy greens, nuts, and fish.
  4. Get regular eye exams: Monitor your vision and adjust your glasses or contacts as needed.
  5. Reduce screen time: Limit your screen time, especially in low-light conditions.

Something I do to protect my eyes is to read things or use gadgets by keeping them at a safe distance. Although it’s difficult as a student but try to go out outside for 1 - 2 hrs every day to keep my power in control too.
