摘要: Groups of patients with suspiciously narrow angles, open angle glaucoma, and normal subjects were subjected to a variety provocative tests for closure. The prone test, which apparently involves nonmydriatic mechanisms, was found yield an approximately 50% incidence positive in the group. false positives glaucomatous negligible.
