Mydriatic provocative test is usually not preferred nowadays because this is not physiological. In this test either a weak mydriatic or simultaneously a mydriatic and miotic (10% phenylephrine and 2% pilocarpine) are used to produce a mid-dilated pupil. A pressure rise of more than 8 mm Hg is considered positive.

In Darkroom test IOP is recorded and patient is made to lie prone in a darkroom for 1 hour. Patient should must remain awake so that pupils remain dilated. After 1 hour, the IOP is again measured. An increase in IOP of more than 8 mm Hg is considered diagnostic of PACG suspect.
