Abstract

Developed by UK clinicians and academics specialising in hallucination and ophthalmic health research, these guidelines integrate international evidence with real-world clinical expertise to support the identification and management of Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS). They provide a structured framework for eye care professionals, outlining pre-emptive strategies, differential diagnostic considerations, and evidence-informed interventions to mitigate the impact of the condition. This practical, cross-disciplinary protocol is designed for routine clinical practice, promoting consistency in patient support across services.
