Basically, Assymemetry of 3 mmHg of IOP between 2 eyes is an ideal situation. At clinic we use NCT machine for IOP where value can fluctuate by a factor 3-4 due to eye movement, eye strain, excessive squeezing during IOP measurement. So the IOP that u mention is within normal limit. And difference of 3 is not of concern here.

if  u are overconcern, get an applnation tonometry done. To know more book an online appointment to with me. Thank you 👍
