Association of retinal vascular fractal dimension with cognitive impairment among community‐dwelling older adults in Taiwan
Over time, we found that higher retinal vascular D<sub>f</sub> was associated with better attention performance in the community-dwelling elders in the TIGER cohort, especially for the right eye. Further research is required to validate these findings and clarify the mechanisms linking eye vascular complexity differences to cognitive impairment.
