Smartphone-based AI eye disease screening for anterior segment conditions

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a multi-center, cross-sectional study evaluating an on-device artificial intelligence system that analyzes images of the eye's front segment to screen for 16 conditions. The software runs entirely on a standard Android smartphone, avoiding cloud-based processing. The goal is to determine if the on-device AI can provide clinically acceptable diagnostic performance in real-world settings, including areas with limited internet connectivity. Participants are adults capable of providing consent, and image capture must be feasible with smartphone photography or slit-lamp biomicroscopy. The study is led by Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, with collaboration across centers under a structure that emphasizes standalone deployment.
