Basically,
When you measure your IOP with NCT machine the difference of 3 mmHg of pressure between eyes does not matter as sometimes the pressure also takes into account of eye strain that patient do during measurement.
So don't worry it absolutely normal.
Don't go with the Google as they are very ideal scenarios.
Thank you
