Is there any way I could see the number of impressions in my Facebook Pages dashboard (under "Insights")? Right now I can see only the reach, visits and new likes. Given that the reach numbers are based on the number of impressions, I assume the impression values should be stored somewhere.

Iam trying get the number of times each individual liked my particular post.
It seems that it is possible to get the overall like count of a page.
But I dont need the overall like count. I want in specific data of a user who liked my posts.
I tried these links
How can I get fan page likes count using graph api?

How to get Facebook likes count for a Facebook page?
I am just writing the answer which is mentioned in the comment. Because that's the answer.
No, that is not really possible. Each of your friends would have to
sign in to your app and grant it permission to read their likes, and
you would need to have valid individual user tokens available for all
of them each time you want to request this data, because “A User or
Page can only query their own likes. Other Users' or Pages' likes are
unavailable due to privacy concerns.”

I am hitting the following facebook api in graph api explorer to get the daily insights of page post. It always return the empty response.
2168960843146707_2213719068670884/insights?metric=page_actions_post_reactions_like_total, page_actions_post_reactions_haha_total,page_actions_post_reactions_wow_total&period=day&since=1550146218&until=1550148280
There is either no data for those fields, or your page didn't meet certain criteria. You're also querying for a 30 minute time range for yesterday, so those metrics may not be ready yet, but I think they probably should be if your page is published.
"Insights are only generated for a Facebook Page that has more than 100 people that like it. Likewise, demographic metrics, such as age, gender and location, are available in Page Insights once there is data for 100 or more people."
We are developing an application using the Facebook Graph API to track metrics for our page over time, for example, number of shares of posts on the page.
We are retrieving number of shares, comments and likes from the post objects in our page feed and then summing them for our reporting period - the query is of the following form
{page-id}/posts?fields=shares,created_time,likes.limit(1).summary(true),comments.limit(1).summary(true)&since={start-date}&until={end-date}
However, the numbers we are getting from this query do not match with those from the Business Manager Insights page. For example, for the month of October 2016 the Graph API count for post comments is more than twice that reported from the insights data. Furthermore, the numbers do not always match with those we get from manually counting comments etc. directly from the posts on our page.
Does anyone have an explanation for how these discrepancies might arise?
Check this article. "Error: When gauging the total number of people who saw at least one of a Page’s posts organically over a seven-day or 28-day period, Facebook didn’t de-duplicate that audience when reporting a Page’s organic reach in its Page Insights dashboard. In other words, if someone saw a Page’s post on Monday, and then another post from that Page on Tuesday, Facebook counted that person as two people."

We use the Like buttons on our pages and the count is important. However, recently, the count has been lower for users that aren't logged into Facebook when viewing a given page.
I think this is because of the Open Graph. It seems that Facebook counts general likes and likes that had open graph data included on the button when the user is logged into Facebook. But when the user is not logged into Facebook - these counts only show likes and not the open graph likes - thus making the number lower...
This is causing issues for us - as we want the Like button to show the same amount of likes regardless if the user is logged into Facebook or not...
Any advice or a solution is appreciated....
This post that seems to explain exactly the scenario you are talking about. Essentially, the inflated number being reported is the total engagement count for this page (Likes and Shares) where are you are looking for the Fan Count (how many people explicitly hit the like button).

I'm trying to get number of Page visits(by unique users) for a Facebook page for the particular day or Week , i hope you know that some of metrics in insights have removed so i'm search for apt metric to show the Page visit count for the day.
i have gone through some of metrics similar to my requirement like (page_engaged_users, Page_impressions etc),
but i'm confused to choose the best one to fit to my requirement.
The stat you're looking for appears to be deprecated.
page_active_users The number of people who have interacted with or viewed your Page or its posts. This includes interactions from Fans
and non-Fans. (deprecated) day, week, month
However here's some that look promising that you didn't mention
page_views Page views day
page_views_unique Page Views from users logged into Facebook day
