Eye test may detect Parkinson's before symptoms appear
25 August 2016
A new low-cost and non-invasive eye test could detect Parkinson's disease before symptoms including tremors and muscle stiffness develop, according to new research in rats led by scientists at MyAV范.
Led by Professor Cordeiro, researchers at the MyAV范 Institute of Ophthalmology have discovered a new method of observing changes in the retina which can be seen in Parkinson's before changes in the brain occur and the first symptoms become evident.
