Comparison of photoinduced local modes (PILM's) of insulating YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 6.3} and Tl{sub 2}Ba{sub 2}Ca{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Gd{sub {ital x}}Cu{sub 2}O{sub 8} with Raman spectra of their metallic counterparts suggests that carrier injection anomalously increases the frequencies of phonons involving {ital z}-axis apex-oxygen motion in both the dilute (insulator) and concentrated (metallic) limit. In La{sub 2}CuO{sub 4}, we observe PILM's whose frequencies suggest a correspondence with the ghost modes'' observed in neutron scattering (Rietschel {ital et} {ital al}., Physica C 162--164, 1705 (1989)). These data, together with Raman data on apex-oxygen anharmonicity, enable us to discuss the vibronic mode couplings involved in polaron formation in the three materials.
