Purpose of reviewArtificial intelligence has advanced rapidly in recent years and has provided powerful tools to aid with the diagnosis, management, and treatment of ophthalmic diseases. This article aims to review the most current clinical artificial intelligence applications in anterior segment diseases, with an emphasis on microbial keratitis, keratoconus, dry eye syndrome, and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy.Recent findingsMost current artificial intelligence approaches have focused on developing deep learning algorithms based on various imaging modalities. Algorithms have been developed to detect and differentiate microbial keratitis classes and quantify microbial keratitis features. Artificial intelligence may aid with early detection and staging of keratoconus. Many advances have been made to detect, segment, and quantify features of dry eye syndrome and Fuchs. There is significant variability in the reporting of methodology, patient population, and outcome metrics.SummaryArtificial intelligence shows great promise in detecting, diagnosing, grading, and measuring diseases. There is a need for standardization of reporting to improve the transparency, validity, and comparability of algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
