Hi, I think you're concerned about your NCT reading. Don't worry as one reading doesn't determine your status. Your vision and AT is ok.
Next Steps
you need to monitor your eye pressure again. different timing can give different readings due to the diurnal variation is eye pressure. get AT done as it is more accurate, check your corneal thickness as AT reading is dependent on that.
Health Tips
Depending on the above two things you can get your field tests and optic nerve head examined from an eye doctor to further plan the course of action regarding whether to label as glaucoma suspect or not.

Pls explain more about your concern. If you're worried about the NCT reading in RE (25) .. sometimes it can show a falsely higher value, your AT reading is normal, your retina is also normal, and vision perfect.
Next Steps
what you can do if you are really anxious, take a few more readings of the pressure,and calculate an average.
follow up after one month and repeat the tests.
If they suggest a visual fields test for more confirmation,you can do that too, in the next month. Together it gives a more clear picture.
