Vision Problems

Visual problems are another significant indication that you have Alzheimer's disease. Patients, for example, may have abnormal ocular movements. Patients may have their eyeballs move but be much slower. Even their reactions, in general, become slow. In other patients, however, eye movements occur much more frequently. This means that the symptoms can vary from patient to case.

In patients, visual contrast is lost. Pupils can become unresponsive or not function; Patients are also no longer photophobic and may have color discovery problems. It's because they have a very narrow perspective along with it. Depth perception is a 3D vision the brain lacks the ability to perceive. It also impacts activity and movement problems. According to specialists, the symptoms include impaired visual attention and impaired recognition of objects and faces. On examination, even visual problems may be evident.
