A breakthrough in retinal imaging AI is giving scientists an unprecedented ability to detect the early warning signs of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease up to a decade before a patient notices any memory loss. Researchers are now using advanced eye-scanning technology powered by artificial intelligence to analyse microscopic nerve patterns in the eye — offering one of the most promising tools yet for predicting and preventing Alzheimer’s disease before irreversible brain damage sets in. Background: Why the Eye Is a Window to the Brain For decades, diagnosing dementia relied on…
