Eye movement test to help diagnose Parkinson's-like conditions
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study uses a simple eye-tracking test to see if eye movement patterns can help tell the difference between Parkinson's disease and similar conditions like PSP or MSA. It aims to find a faster, easier way to diagnose these disorders.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 40 and 80 years old (or 50 to 80 for Parkinson's disease)
- Diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, PSP, or MSA less than 5 years ago
- Have normal vision or vision corrected with glasses or contacts
- Score 20 or higher on the MoCA cognitive test
- Able to follow instructions and sign a consent form
- If you have Parkinson's, your Hoehn & Yahr stage must be 1 to 3

This study tests a remote monitoring system to track symptoms of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and similar movement disorders. It may tell you how your condition changes over time without needing frequent clinic visits.
This study tests digital devices that may help track Parkinson's symptoms using eye movements and balance. It is designed for people with Parkinson's or related conditions who have trouble with walking (freezing) and can walk for at least 5 minutes.
This trial looks at how analyzing hand movements might help doctors tell the difference between Parkinson's disease and other similar conditions early on. It may help improve diagnosis so patients get the right care sooner.
This study looks at how Parkinson disease affects the connection between vision and movement. You will be asked to view a computer screen and perform simple tasks to help researchers understand these changes.
