Cognitive Functioning, Eyesight and Eye Movement Changes in the Course of Normal Aging Alzheimer’s Dementia Process – a Review Research Polish society is aging. Currently, people over 65 constitute 16.5% population. Along with changes population structure, number patients dementia disorders increases. Every year, worldwide, there are nearly 4.6 million new diagnosed dementia, including disease (AD). The purpose this article to review research studies that analyze visual-spatial deficits, eyesight eye movement normally aging AD. With age, various cognitive deficits appear, visualspatial perception complex stimuli, copying figures visual construction, coordination processing. So far, have been conducted which show AD thinner retinal nerve fiber layer. Macular volume thickness reduction also observed, correlates severity impairment. points association disorders. Patients group make greater errors anti-saccade tasks as compared healthy people. Typical for delayed saccades slow vertical saccade movement, lower accuracy longer latency time, well saccadic inhibition ageing Identification can not only provide information on but it possible track its progression, thus, probably, evaluate effectiveness treatment. Further will verify diagnostic value an marker determining disease, monitoring course assessing
