Closed Angle Glaucoma Diagnosis with Machine
Learning Artificial Intelligence
Closed
Angle Glaucoma is a sight threatening medical emergency that can cause
catastrophic vision loss in a short time if not treated quickly. It is possible
to use a number of tests during your eye exam to determine whether you might be
at risk. If you are, we can provide an in office laser treatment to easy
decrease your risk of Closed Angle Glaucoma. One of these tests is Optical Coherence Tomography, also called
AS-OCT short for Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography which allows us
to create digital images that are
cross-sectional pictures of the eye’s anterior chambers. Researchers are
now developing a fully automated database for screening for AS-OCT screening for Closed Angle Glaucoma using machine
learning artificial intelligence
that will make the diagnosis very reliable and consistent and readily performed
by our staff as part of your eye exams if you are at risk.
