Eye scan study for mild Alzheimer’s and memory changes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses detailed eye imaging (an eye scan) to look for signs related to probable Alzheimer’s disease and mild dementia. It may help researchers understand whether eye scans can reflect brain changes and improve detection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 55 or older
- If you have dementia: you must have a doctor-confirmed probable Alzheimer’s diagnosis
- If you don’t have dementia: screening tests must show no dementia
- You must be able to sit still and keep your gaze steady during the eye scan
- You must have adequate eyesight for the scan (details depend on whether you’re in the dementia or control group)
- You need consent support: a legally authorized representative can sign for you and attend the scan visit (if you have dementia)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a special, low-cost eye scanner to look at the back of the eye (retina) in people with early Alzheimer's or mild memory problems. It aims to find changes that might help with early detection.
This trial uses a type of eye scan (OCT) to look at the retina in people with brain conditions like multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or migraines. It aims to see if these scans can help doctors learn more about the disease and monitor it over time.
This study uses detailed eye scans to look for changes that might relate to memory problems. You may be able to join if you are being seen for memory concerns and meet the health and eye-scan requirements.
This study uses a special camera (OCT) to take pictures of the retina (the back of your eye) to see if it can detect Alzheimer's disease very early. You may be eligible if you are either cognitively normal or have mild cognitive impairment, and have already had a test for Alzheimer's-related brain changes.
This study uses detailed eye imaging to look for patterns that may go along with conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, memory problems, multiple sclerosis, or eye/vascular issues. It may help researchers better understand how eye findings relate to health and disease.
This study uses pictures of the back of your eye (retinal imaging) to look for differences in people with neurodegenerative diseases and compares them with people without these conditions. It may help researchers understand eye changes that could connect to brain or nerve health.
