<p><strong>Background:</strong> The cause of delay in obtaining a dental care definitely depends on the individual’s anxiety status at a dental set up. Anxiety is a state of delirium experienced by an individual. Nevertheless, this feeling of discomfort may hamper the quality of life of an individual.</p><p><strong>Objectives:</strong>To assess the degree of dental anxiety and to assess the reason for dental anxiety</p><p><strong>Methods:</strong> A total of 950 participants were enrolled into the present study. Data was collected using a questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of two parts; the first part composed of items on demographic characteristics of the patient, and the second part included a questionnaire consisting of combination of Corah’s Dental Anxiety Scale and Dental Fear Survey.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> In a total sample of 872 patients, 538 individuals were dentally anxious (mean DAS &gt;9) of which 495 patients had a mean score of 9-12 (Mildly anxious); 30 patients had a mean score of 13-15 (Moderately anxious). Only a few subjects (13) were highly anxious (mean DAS &gt; 15). When individual situation of anxiety was assessed, the population noted highest anxiety on feeling or seeing the anaesthetic needle followed by feeling of the vibrations of the drill and being seated in a dental chair.</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> As dental anxiety is a continuum, where to place the cut-off point is a crucial issue in research, which aims to compare</p><p>subjects fearful of dentistry with those who are not. The validity of many measures has not been adequately assessed, perhaps because of the difficulty of identifying an external referent against which it may be tested. Evidence in the form of behavioral, physiological or</p><p>cognitive characteristics should be considered to manage these dentally anxious individuals effectively in the dental office.</p>

Abstract Objectives Amblyopia is a decrease of visual acuity that cannot be attributed to any structural abnormality of the eye or visual system, causing a partial or complete loss of vision due to inadequate stimulation in early life. Citicoline has been reported to improve visual acuity in amblyopic eyes as adjuvant treatment. This study was aimed to determine the effectiveness of citicoline in pediatric patients with refractive amblyopia in ophthalmology daily practices. Methods This was a retrospective–descriptive study with a time limited sampling method. This study was conducted at Surabaya Eye Clinic, East Java, Indonesia, by reviewing medical records for the period of January 2018 to December 2019.

The severity of amblyopia varied among patients, 21 eyes (61.76%) had mild amblyopia, seven eyes (20.59%) had moderate amblyopia, and two eyes (5.88%) had severe amblyopia. The duration of given therapy also varied, 18 eyes (52.94%) were given 3 months therapy, two eyes were given 4 months therapy, 12 eyes were given 6 months therapy, and two eyes were given 8 months therapy. Citicoline was found effective in mild and moderate amblyopia and for the duration of 3 and 6 months (p<0.05).
