We all rely on artificial intelligence in our daily lives. From Siri to Google Maps and Netflix recommendations, AI is a constant presence. But did you know it is also transforming eye care and ophthalmology? From advanced diagnostics to research and personalized treatments, ophthalmic artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping the future of vision care.

Glaucoma remains a leading cause of vision loss worldwide, yet its impact can often be mitigated through early detection and effective treatment strategies. Eye care professionals play a pivotal role in addressing this condition, which is often referred to as the "silent thief of sight" due to its asymptomatic nature in early stages. By leveraging innovative treatment methods and fostering patient compliance, it is possible to preserve vision and improve outcomes for individuals living with glaucoma.

Migraines are among the most common neurological conditions, affecting an estimated 1 in 8 people globally. Despite this prevalence, many people remain unaware of their symptoms or fail to seek a diagnosis. Migraines are often misunderstood as "just a headache," but as Dr. Rani Banik emphasizes in The Eye-Q Podcast, they are far more complex. They can manifest in various ways, including visual and neurological symptoms. For eye care professionals, understanding migraines is essential, as they often encounter patients presenting with these symptoms.
