Abstract

Glaucoma patients often bear a long-lasting burden of disease. This can result in anxiety and stress. Causes and effects of anxiety are identified and case studies illustrate how to deal with them. Some knowledge of psychosomatic management is helpful for doctors in dealing with their patients to provide necessary treatment in a less fearful and stressful format.
