Changes associated with Alzheimer's disease extend beyond the brain.

Lotfi Merabet, OD, PhD, MPH, discusses his role as co-chairman of a National Eye Institute initiative focused on advancing research in cerebral visual impairment (CVI). The initiative's key goals include raising awareness about CVI, establishing clear diagnostic criteria, and developing a national registry to track patients and their conditions over time. CVI, a complex condition that affects how the brain processes visual information, requires a multidisciplinary approach involving not only ophthalmologists and optometrists but also neuroscientists, educators, and rehabilitation specialists.
