Yoga exercises caused prodromal attacks of acute glaucoma in a previously healthy patient with narrow anterior chamber angles. Attention is drawn to the “prone‐position” test, which was extremely positive. Ultra sound oculometry confirmed the shallow chamber and thick lens characteristic of primary angle‐closure glaucoma, and supported a gravitational shift of lens position in the prone position.
