Eye imaging study for people with memory problems
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re visiting a memory clinic for a memory concern (or you’re accompanying someone who is).
- You are not pregnant and not breastfeeding.
- No major past brain/nerve conditions like stroke, multiple sclerosis, or brain tumors.
- No history of retinal (inside-eye) problems, and your glasses prescription isn’t too strong (above 3 diopters farsight/nearsight or 1.5 diopters astigmatism).
- You have not taken certain medicines long-term: ethambutol for over 2 months or synthetic antimalarial medicines for over 2 years.
- Your memory test scores are not too low (MMSE/MoCA: under 10 for the person with memory concerns, or under 26 for an accompanying person), and you can safely have an MRI if required.

This extension study looks for predictors—measurable clues—linked to memory changes in older adults who feel their memory is worsening. You may be asked to have an amyloid PET scan, which can help researchers understand what might be driving memory concerns.
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.
This study uses a special camera to photograph the back of your eye in detail. Researchers believe changes in the eye may reflect brain diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, and this imaging could help detect these conditions earlier.
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 brain “optical” and possibly MRI scans to understand how thinking and memory work in people with Lewy body dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, or mild memory problems. It may help researchers find better ways to measure brain changes and cognition over time.
This study is testing a new eye camera to see if it can help find early signs of Alzheimer's disease. It is for people aged 55 and older who either have mild to moderate Alzheimer's or do not have Alzheimer's.
