Probably but: its important to check with your state DMV as to the minimum vision requirements for driving. In most states, if you are 20/40 or better without glasses, you are fine. Your left eye prescription is minimal. Otherwise, if you feel like you function well without glasses then don't bother. Be safe.

AXIS values on my prescription glasses 2 years ago were R:20 L:160. New glasses made recently have R:110 L:60. Is such a strong change possible, or could one of the two be incorrect? How is it possible that I can still see well with both glasses?
