It's within normal limits provided the disc and field of vision are normal. If you are very anxious then visit a local ophthalmologist and get Fundus examination for disc changes Field of vision  . Diurnal variation

It's normal. Minor fluctuations happen due to changes in what time of the day measurement was taken, machine calibration etc.

If your optic disc examination is normal then no issues. You can get the cct done when you next visit your Ophthalmologist for corrected IOP . But your IOP is fine. No need of any intervention.

It's not worrisome.  If any family history or ocular illness then we investigate in detail.  Common iop has diurnal variations. 16 or 18 not significant difference
