Testing an AI tool to detect early eye disease in primary care

This trial is testing iPredict, an artificial intelligence system designed to detect early signs of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using simple eye photographs. The AI system analyzes these photos automatically to identify people at risk of losing vision. Researchers want to confirm that the system works as well as eye specialists do when looking at detailed eye imaging.

Currently, there is no good way to screen large numbers of people for early AMD in regular doctor's offices, even though catching it early could prevent blindness and help people avoid depression, falls, and loss of independence. This medication could help doctors identify people who would benefit from vitamin supplements that have been shown to slow disease progression.
