Summary

This study looks at whether special eye scans can find early signs of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Researchers will check for changes in blood flow and protein buildup in the retinas of 20 older adults with mild dementia, compared to healthy volunteers. The goal is to see if the eyes can help diagnose dementia without invasive tests.
