Evaluating the Predictive Accuracy of an AI-Based Tool for Postoperative Vault Estimation in Phakic Intraocular Lens Implantation by Zaldivar R, Zaldivar R, Cummings AB, Cummings BK, Mertens EL, Ang RE, Zarate Piscopo LI, Quintero G, Cerviño A

“…Doctors currently use different methods to estimate the best lens size, but these are not always perfect.This study tested a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool that predicts how much space (or “vault”) will be left between the implanted lens and the eye’s natural structures after surgery. The aim is to know if this tool could accurately estimate the vault before surgery, helping doctors choose the right lens size.To find out, 347 eyes from 228 patients who had ICL surgery in four different eye clinics around the world were analyzed. …”
