Artificial intelligence in ophthalmology: The path to the real-world clinic.

ABSTRACT: Artificial intelligence (AI) has great potential to transform healthcare by enhancing the workflow and productivity of clinicians, enabling existing staff to serve more patients, improving patient outcomes, and reducing health disparities. In the field of ophthalmology, AI systems have shown performance comparable with or even better than experienced ophthalmologists in tasks such as diabetic retinopathy detection and grading. However, despite these quite good results, very few AI systems have been deployed in real-world clinical settings, challenging the true value of these systems. This review provides an overview of the current main AI applications in ophthalmology, describes the challenges that need to be overcome prior to clinical implementation of the AI systems, and discusses the st
