I have purchased an oximeter due to covid 19,so today we measured oxygen of my father the oxygen level is coming 93 to 95. Is it normal? Or is it a concern? As i have read on internet oxygen level should be between 95 to 99 percent.

Reading of more than 94% is considered normal. It also depends on whether he has asthma or any breathing related problems. Then even 92% and above is considered okay. A single reading of 93% is not to be worried about.
Next Steps
Consult a physician if it's regularly below 94%

Some pulse oximeter can provide this type measurement. Maybe its 99% but home pulse oximeter doesn't provide actual measurements all the time.
