Bad News, Need Expert Advice

i just came back form eye check-up.. checking for Malaysian DCA Class-1
according to the opthalmology,
i will be issued a Class-1 Medical with Restriction(Flying at night)
that's because my correction limit exceeded the allowable limit
R:-4.50D -1.75D AStig
L:-4.25D -1.75D Astig
According to the Doctor,
-4.5D + 0.875D(half of 1.75D of my astig) = 5.375D(exceeded the given limit of -5D)
he say.. for those who flew for some years.....exceeding the limit is ok.. but as for my case(initial) my class-1 will have restriction.
