A new study paper in the journal Ophthalmology Retina outlines research that took place at Duke Eye Center in Durham, NC.
The researchers propose that a loss in density of blood vessels in the retina could suggest development of Alzheimer’s disease.
Researchers studied more than 200 people with normal brain function as well as individuals with Alzheimer’s.
They used a technique called optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), which is noninvasive and can reveal blood flow in every layer of the retina.
