Article Synopsis
- Contact lenses (CLs) are popular among users for correcting vision but there's often a lack of knowledge about their risks and proper care, prompting this study to assess awareness among CL wearers in Saudi Arabia.
- The survey conducted with 393 women revealed that most learned about CLs from friends; the majority used them for social occasions, and dry eyes were a common side effect.
- Regular CL use was notably low (16%), influenced primarily by medical and cosmetic reasons, with findings suggesting a need for further research on the safety and effects of CL wear.
Background: Assessment of artificial intelligence (AI)-based models across languages is crucial to ensure equitable access and accuracy of information in multilingual contexts. This study aimed to compare AI model efficiency in English and Arabic for infectious disease queries.
Methods: The study employed the METRICS checklist for the design and reporting of AI-based studies in healthcare.
Introduction The lens, essential for vision, can be impaired by cataracts, leading to partial or complete reversible vision loss. Common risk factors include aging, diabetes, and steroid use, with significant financial implications. Limited awareness in Saudi Arabia necessitates further research to reduce cataract prevalence and increase knowledge about steroid-induced cataracts.

Knowledge of both risk factors has a major role in preventing CVD by encouraging screening and applying the necessary lifestyle modifications. This study aims to assess the knowledge of risk factors and complications associated with heart attacks among individuals in the early adulthood age group.
