Abstract:
Artificial intelligence(AI)has made major strides in ophthalmology in recent years.Yet,its application in resolving children's ocular problems has received limited attention.The automated detection system for retinopathy of pre-maturity has achieved expert-level accuracy in diagnosis.AI has been applied to categorize cataract abnormalities in chil-dren,forecast postoperative complications of cataracts,predict the progression of high myopia,and automatically detect strabismus and refractive error.Additionally,AI has also been utilized in visual development research,segmentation of vas-cular development in children's fundus images,and the synthesis of ophthalmic images.Applying AI technologies in pediat-ric ophthalmology can greatly enhance the accuracy of disease diagnosis and the efficiency of treatment and improve clinical care.This article reviews the application,shortcomings and future development of AI in the diagnosis of retinopathy of pre-maturity,dyslexia in children,pediatric vision screening,amblyopia,strabismus,ametropia,and childhood cataracts.
