Read our Parkinson Disease research guide →Researchers are developing a new digital device that measures eye movements to help diagnose Parkinson's disease. Currently, doctors diagnose Parkinson's mainly through clinical exams and observing how patients walk or move—which can be subjective and vary from day to day. This study aims to create a more objective, precise way to detect Parkinson's by analyzing eye movement patterns, which research suggests are often affected in people with this condition.
Parkinson's diagnosis today relies heavily on a doctor's judgment and can miss early signs of disease. This new technology could provide objective measurements to catch Parkinson's earlier and help doctors better monitor how the disease progresses over time, leading to more personalized care.

You would visit the research clinic where specialists will measure your eye movements using digital devices while you perform simple tasks like looking at moving objects or images. The study will also include brief walking tests and assessments of your symptoms. Researchers may ask you to complete these tests multiple times to track changes in your eye movement patterns as they develop and refine this diagnostic tool.
