Abstract
Myopia is a global health issue, and the prevalence of high myopia has increased significantly in the past five to six decades. The high incidence of myopia and its vision-threatening course emphasize the need for automated methods to screen for high myopia and its serious form, named pathologic myopia (PM). Artificial intelligence (AI)-based applications have been extensively applied in medicine, and these applications have focused on analyzing ophthalmic images to diagnose the disease and to determine prognosis from these images. However, unlike diseases that mainly show pathologic changes in the fundus, high myopia and PM generate even more data because both the ophthalmic information and morphological changes in the retina and choroid need to be analyzed. In this review, we present how AI techniques have been used to diagnose and manage high myopia, PM, and other ocular diseases and discuss the current capacity of AI in assisting in preventing high myopia.
