To manage it, the underlying cause must be identified and different coping strategies, therapies, and medications may be used. In real life, this phobia can be triggered by public speaking, socializing, eye exams, contact lenses, eye drops, eye masks, getting substances in the eyes, and even seeing fake eyes.
