Your eyes will tell you whether you are at risk of dementia in a few years or not, a big revelation in research
Eyes can tell a lot about our mental health. In fact, eye problems indicate the disease that will come in your future.
Eyes can tell a lot about our mental health. In fact, eye problems indicate the disease that will come in your future. That is why doctors first check the eyes in any disease because the initial symptoms of the disease first appear on the eyes. Recent research has shown that loss of vision and eye problems can be early symptoms of dementia 12 years before dementia occurs.
What was revealed in the research
Recent research was done in Norfolk, England. In which 8,623 healthy people were included, who were kept under observation for several years. By the end of the research, 537 participants had developed dementia, so we could see what factors could precede this diagnosis. The research said that initially a special test was done on the participants. In this, people who had developed dementia were able to see the screen very slowly. Whereas those who had not developed dementia were able to see very comfortably.
Alzheimer's is its initial symptom. It is very important to control it in time. People suffering from Alzheimer's have problems in ignoring distracting stimuli, which can come in the form of problems in controlling eye movements. If it becomes difficult to avoid distracting stimuli due to dementia, then these problems can increase the risk of driving accidents.
Recognizing faces
Some evidence has been given in the research. Which tells that people suffering from dementia are not able to recognize the faces of new people. Also, when they talk to a new person, they do not understand which words to use because there is a lot of difficulty in recognizing and talking. If a healthy person sees a person once, then he does not have any problem again. He can talk comfortably.
These symptoms are seen in dementia patients
Some doctors working with people suffering from dementia will recognize that a person has dementia when they meet them. People suffering from dementia can sometimes appear confused, as they do not deliberately turn their eyes to see the environment around them, including the faces of people they have just met.
