- Infectious keratitis (IK) is a major cause of corneal blindness worldwide, and the study evaluates the effectiveness of deep learning (DL) in its diagnosis compared to ophthalmologists.
- The systematic review included 35 studies with over 136,000 corneal images, finding that DL had high sensitivity (86.2%-91.6%) and specificity (90.7%-96.3%) for diagnosing IK.
- Results indicate that DL models perform similarly to ophthalmologists in diagnosing IK, but the conclusions should be approached cautiously due to potential biases and the need for further validation in diverse populations.
