Conclusion: astigmatisme
R/ UF selon BT à leur demande : port constant - co 1 an : mesurer lunettes SVP
Diagnostic : astigmatisme
I don't know what the R stands for here, I think that UF may mean verres unifocaux (but not certain), and as I don't know what BT stands for either, I am at a bit of a loss.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Rectification/Unifocaux
The R/UF stands for Rectification/Unifocaux, meaning Correction/Unifocal lenses
This indicates that the recommended treatment is corrective unifocal lenses to address the astigmatism.
BT likely stands for Besoin de traitement meaning Treatment needed - referring to the patient's request for treatment.

The key point is that astigmatism is an optical imperfection within each eye, not a difference between the two eyes per se. But the degree of astigmatism can vary between the two eyes.
