Frisco, Texas, May 17, 2018 Lewy body dementia, also known as dementia with Lewy bodies, is the second most common type of progressive dementia after Alzheimer’s disease dementia. This is the same disease that afflicted actor, Robin Williams. Protein deposits, called Lewy bodies, develop in nerve cells in the brain regions involved in thinking, memory and movement (motor control).

Lewy body dementia causes an advanced decline in mental abilities. People with Lewy body dementia could experience visual hallucinations, and fluctuations in alertness and attention.
