Artificial intelligence in ophthalmology: the ophthalmologist's opinion

The emergence of artificial intelligence has influenced many aspects of our lives. Modern medicine relies heavily on diagnostic tools using image processing algorithms and artificial intelligence. Modern ophthalmology is not out of this context and has undergone a real revolution in recent years. Several studies have focused on combining artificial intelligence and image processing algorithms to provide powerful tools to assist ophthalmologists in their diagnoses and decisions. Recently, new devices combining these two sciences have been developed and the results seem promising. But where does the ophthalmologist stand in relation to this? In this article, we try to support the main scientific advances and describe the advantages, disadvantages and challenges.
