Does this change in prescription warrant a new pair of glasses?

My prescription has changed from: R: Sphere +0.25/ Cylinder -1.00/ Axis 102 L: Sphere +0.50/ Cylinder -1.75/ Axis 61 to this new one: R: Sphere +0.50/ Cylinder -1.00/ Axis 103 L: Sphere +0.50/ Cylinder -2.25/ Axis 66 Is this a big enough change to warrant a new pair of glasses?

It's quite a small change, not significant in the right but a little greater in the left. If you notice a slight blurr in the left eye with your present prescription then it may be worth changing, but it will do you no harm to continue as you are.

Referring to your prescription, I think you do not need to change for a new pair of eyewear because your prescription is just slightly changed. You need not to worry about it. Theoretically, if your strength does not reach to +/-100, it is not need to wear eyeglasses. Otherwise, it will increase the burden of the ciliary muscle.
