Abstract

BACKGROUND: A cataract defines as a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of the eyes, altering one’s physical function, as well as social and psychological aspects. The only definitive treatment option for cataracts is surgery which may lead to anxiety either before the intervention, on intervention, or after the intervention.

AIM: This study is to investigate the difference in anxiety scores among bilateral senile cataract patients at Sumatera Eye Centre Medan before and after undergoing cataract surgery.

METHOD: This comparative analytical study was carried out using Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety Subscale to assess anxiety symptoms experienced by 40 bilateral senile cataract patients. Measurement was taken twice, before the surgery ad after undergoing surgery.

RESULT: There is a significant difference in anxiety scores before and after undergoing surgery (p < 0.001).

CONCLUSION: There is a significant difference in anxiety scores before and after undergoing surgery among our subjects. We also found that anxiety is more likely to occur before the surgery.
