Revolutionizing Psychiatric Care: Unleashing the Potential of Augmented and Virtual Reality for Diagnosis and Education

New technologies, such as augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), and virtual reality (VR), are not only of interest to gamers but are increasingly being used in health care as well. Visual content is used in everyday life to enhance the user's visual input. Its medicinal uses have been extensively studied. It can be a promising surgical technique that requires considerable accuracy. Furthermore, the emotional engagement and sensation of participation in the AR program impact the level of the customer experience. These experiences may enhance the efficacy of AR in the management of psychiatric problems. This paper presents an overview of AR and reviews the latest medical applications in diagnosing and treating psychiatric disorders. However, it is fair to say that VR systems have easy delivery with well-controlled sensory motives. The prospect of VR systems is that they could be a new clinical tool for patients with certain psychiatric symptoms. Besides the lack of big observational studies and cost-effectiveness research, it appears that physicians will soon adopt this new technology.
