Hi, The first number 61 is for those who don't require Bi-Focals. Its the measurement from one pupil to the other. The second number 57 is what they use for the reading part, because the eyes converge when looking at near objects(when reading). So the answer to your question is yes, you only need the first #. Also be careful when you enter your prescription in an online prescription form because the doctor wrote your cylinder in plus form(+). They are usually written in minus(-) form, so just make sure you enter it exactly the way it is written. If I may make a suggestion from looking at your prescription, you will be better off with high-index 1.74, because of the high minus or near- sightedness. They are very reasonably priced on the internet. You will probably have to pay over $500 at the chains for the lens alone.
