Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning provided precise image recognition and classification in the medical field. Ophthalmology is an exceptional department to translate AI applications since noninvasive imaging is routinely used for the diagnosis and monitoring. In recent years, AI-based image interpretation of optical coherence tomography and fundus photograph in retinal diseases has been extended to diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and retinopathy of prematurity. The rapid development of portable ocular monitoring devices coupled with AI-informed interpretations allows possible home monitoring or remote monitoring of retinal diseases and patients to gain autonomy and responsibility for their conditions. This review discusses the current research and application of AI, telemedicine, and home monitoring devices on retinal disease. Furthermore, we propose a future model of how AI and digital technology could be implemented in retinal diseases.
