Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Artificial 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 FINDINGS: Most 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. SUMMARY: Artificial 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.
