While most commonly associated with macular degeneration, it may occur in glaucoma. CBS is often under-reported due to stigma and may progress to psychiatric morbidity. A 63-year-old man with bilateral visual loss following acute angle-closure glaucoma experienced vivid hallucinations of animals and snakes. Initially concealed due to embarrassment, the symptoms were revealed during psychiatric assessment. Ophthalmic evaluation confirmed glaucomatous changes; MRI brain was recommended but declined. CBS was diagnosed, and hallucinations resolved with reassurance and low-dose clonazepam. Several weeks later, the patient developed moderate depression (HAM-D\u2009=\u200918), successfully treated with mirtazapine. At three months, he remained asymptomatic. This case is unusual for its association of CBS with angle-closure glaucoma and subsequent depression, underscoring the need for proactive inquiry, de-stigmatization, and integrated ophthalmic\u2013psychiatric care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/omcr\/omag024","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]],"date-time":"2026-03-23T17:43:09Z","timestamp":1774287789000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Charles bonnet syndrome with subsequent depression in acute angle-closure glaucoma: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2026","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2858-0911","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Priyanka Renita","family":"D\u2019Souza","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, Kasturba Medical College Mangalore, Manipal Academy of Higher Education , Manipal ,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9873-6283","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adarsh","family":"Sugathan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Manipal Hospitals, KMC Hospital , Jyothi Circle, Mangalore, Karnataka 575001 ,","place":["India"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"219","DOI":"10.1097\/ICU.0b013e328329b643","article-title":"Charles bonnet syndrome: a review","volume":"20","author":"Schadlu","year":"2009","journal-title":"Curr Opin Ophthalmol"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"58","DOI":"10.1016\/S0039-6257(02)00414-9","article-title":"Complex visual hallucinations in the visually impaired: the Charles bonnet syndrome","volume":"48","author":"Menon","year":"2003","journal-title":"Surv Ophthalmol"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"659","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1442-9071.2008.01814.x","article-title":"Butterflies and black lacy patterns: the prevalence and characteristics of Charles bonnet hallucinations in an Australian population","volume":"36","author":"Vukicevic","year":"2008","journal-title":"Clin Experiment Ophthalmol"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"337","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ogla.2021.10.010","article-title":"Charles bonnet syndrome in patients with open-angle glaucoma: prevalence and correlation to visual field loss","volume":"5","author":"Peters","year":"2022","journal-title":"Ophthalmol Glaucoma"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"29","DOI":"10.18700\/jnc.240017","article-title":"Charles bonnet syndrome following head trauma: a case report and literature review","volume":"17","author":"Wong","year":"2024","journal-title":"J Neurocrit Care"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"186","DOI":"10.4103\/tjosr.tjosr_28_21","article-title":"Indirect traumatic optic neuropathy with associated Charles bonnet syndrome","volume":"60","author":"Girgis","year":"2022","journal-title":"Tnoa J Ophthalmic Sci Res"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref7","first-page":"17","article-title":"Charles bonnet syndrome and dementia after traumatic brain injury","volume":"55","author":"Tobe","year":"2014","journal-title":"Minerva Psichiatr"},{"key":"2026032313430442900_ref8","author":"World Health Organisation.
