Abstract
Given how the diagnosis and management of many ocular and, most specifically, retinal diseases heavily rely on various imaging modalities, the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) into this field has been a logical, inevitable, and successful development in recent decades. The field of retinal diseases has practically become a showcase for the use of AI in medicine. In this article, after providing a short overview of the most relevant retinal diseases and their socioeconomic impact, we highlight various aspects of how AI can be applied in research, diagnosis, and disease management and how this is expected to alter patient flows, affecting also health care professionals beyond ophthalmologists.
