I do not understand .
Why you want to reduce eye pressure? Advised by your doctor?
Eye pressure is a complex thing n it is advisable that an Ophthal takes that call n monitoring...
Sometime u may hv little borderline IOP, but rest of the things normal with no family history..so u will need only monitoring.
As far as I know, there r no known methods for decreasing pressure naturally.., however deep breathing techniques are good for overall parasympathetic control of body's function.
