A study has found that certain changes in the eyes could be one of the first signs of the cruel illness
Researchers have discovered slight changes in the eyes could provide an early warning sign for dementia. A study found that retinal scans can detect key changes in blood vessels that may provide an early indication of Alzheimer’s disease.
"In fact, an ophthalmologist might be the first physician to diagnose a medical condition because the initial signs may appear in the eye." He said: "In some cases, these signs may be subtle and may not be immediately recognisable. However, in other cases, they may become noticeable enough to prompt further investigation.”
