Hello Small difference in power is common between two prescriptions. You can request ophthalmologist to put these lenses in trial frame and you can judge for yourself the better one

Hi if there is variations in various places better go for dilated retinoscopic examination followed by subjective examination than autorefractometer (machine values).
Next Steps
consult ophthalmologist regarding objective retinoscopic examination.
