MRI is recommended asper need. in your fathers case MRI of neck can be taken to diagnose any bony or soft tissue injury. for vision problem, fundus and refraction can be done. this will not work for mental condition, confusion, memory loss etc. these are result of age and senile problem. physician can be consulted for examination and opinion
