Study highlights current and potential roles of AI in glaucoma diagnosis

The study evaluates the performance of GPT-4o in diagnosing glaucoma, revealing its strengths in differential diagnosis while highlighting limitations in primary diagnosis accuracy. GPT-4o matched human ophthalmologists in accuracy for differential diagnoses but fell short in primary diagnosis due to cognitive reasoning challenges. The small sample size of the study calls for further research to validate these findings with larger datasets.

Future advancements in AI should focus on enhancing primary diagnosis capabilities and exploring its role as an adjunct in primary care settings. The study emphasizes the need for continuous improvement in AI models by incorporating clinician feedback and refining training datasets. Ultimately, while GPT-4o shows promise, it should be viewed as a complementary tool rather than a replacement for human expertise.

• GPT-4o excels in differential diagnosis but struggles with primary diagnosis accuracy.

• Future AI developments should enhance primary diagnosis capabilities in healthcare.
