The eye is an anatomical extension of the brain where multiple parallels can be drawn between their neurons, vasculature and immune response. Furthermore, both organs modify similarly with disease. As such it stands to reason that multidisciplinary research that investigates both will inform upon each other, especially in the context of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract

The eye is an anatomical extension of the brain where multiple parallels can be drawn between their neurons, vasculature and immune response. Furthermore, both organs modify similarly with disease. As such it stands to reason that multidisciplinary research that investigates both will inform upon each other, especially in the context of neurodegenerative diseases.
