I have seen many dogs that suffer from sensory loss (either eyesight or hearing) become more fearful or anxious in different situations. The behavior can become habitual, so I think you are doing the right thing by trying to address the issues now.
I've seen success with the thundershirt and somewhat less with the rescue remedy, but still worth a try. Also, talk to your vet as there are some mild anti-anxiety medications (not tranquilizers) that work extremely well either short term or even longer term if necessary.
