Axes are different because of the transposition of cylindrical power as one dr has prescribed plus + number and the other dr minus number.
That is why even the spherical power is also different.
It's better that you go ahead with minus cylindrical number prescription.
Next Steps
Regular check up with nearby ophthalmologist
