According to a new study, published in the journal "Retina" Ophthalmology, It is possible to identify "significant" differences in the retina of Alzheimer's patients, Paving the way for a future, which makes the disease can be diagnosed by a simple eye examination before the onset of major symptoms.
 Duke University's research on non-surgical imaging, called OCTA, Which allows doctors to quickly examine blood flow in small capillaries at the back of the retina.
The chief author of the study Sharon: We measure blood vessels that can not be seen during a regular eye examination, We do this using a relatively new extended technique that takes high-resolution images of very small blood vessels in the retina in just a few minutes
he said: These changes in retinal blood vessel density may reflect what happens in the microvascular brain, perhaps before we can detect any changes in perception,"
According to the site "New Atlas", The study was conducted on more than 200 people, who were photographed using OCTA. It found that 39 people had Alzheimer's disease and 37 had mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
One of the main objectives of the study was to identify any damage to the retina that could be directly linked to Alzheimer's disease, independently of the general cognitive decline associated with aging.
