Overview
Brief Summary
This is a prospective study in a cohort of about 30 patients with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease, who will be evaluated with a clinical assessment and an oculometric examination during a time period with specific intervals.
This study aims to evaluate the correlation between oculometric measures and clinical assessment over time.
Detailed Description
This is an observational prospective cohort study, in a cohort of up to 30 patients with idiopathic PD. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that oculometric measures are able to detect patient deterioration faster than can be detected using the currently available clinical assessment tools. In addition, to evaluate the correlation between oculometric measures and Movement Disorder Society-Sponsored Revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) score over time ,in subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and who provide a signed Informed Consent. All patients will be assessed using MDS-UPDRS over a period of 9 months (4 assessments, at 0, 3, 6, 9 months). During this time period, every subject who consents will undergo a NeuraLight session including oculometric measurements and eye-tracking recordings using a novel software-based platform and an eye- tracking system (Tobii, CE-marked class B approved device) (approx. 30 minutes). The oculometric evaluation will occur during the first 3 months for every patient every 2 weeks (+3 days), and then after 6 months and 9 months from enrollment (+3 days), (9 tests in total). All assessments will be performed during a clinic visit unless authorized to be conducted remotely. During the study, the sponsor will be blinded to the private details of the subjects.

Secondary Outcomes
- Using the retrieved data of collected NeuraLight oculometric measures for calibration of prediction models of MDS-UPDRS clinical endpoint(12 months)
