Author: Ryan Kissinger, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, NIH, Source:https://search.creativecommons.org/photos/00024caf-e87b-48a8-8581-1808d835fae7 Description:National Institutes of Health scientists and their colleagues have found evidence of the infectious agent of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in the eyes of deceased CJD patients. The finding suggests that the eye may be a source for early CJD diagnosis and raises questions about the safety of routine eye exams and corneal transplants. Sporadic CJD, a fatal neurodegenerative prion disease of humans, is untreatable and difficult to diagnose.
