Parkinson’s disease is a common neurological disease common in middle aged and elderly men. Parkinson’s disease involves the degeneration of the extrapyramidal motor system resulting in movement related symptoms such as tremor, rigidity, postural instability, ataxia etc. [1]. Some patients may also develop and experience sensory changes involving olfactory disturbances and auditory and visual disturbances. This paper will explore the ophthalmologic and overall visual problems experienced by Parkinson’s Disease patients in a study conducted at the Berat and Pogradec Ambulatory Clinics in Albania.
