AI eye test could spot severe dry eye faster
NCT ID NCT07554911
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new AI algorithm that screens for severe dry eye disease by analyzing images of the cornea. Researchers will enroll 200 adults already diagnosed with dry eye to see if the AI can better identify cases needing specialist care compared to a standard symptom questionnaire. The goal is to help community doctors manage dry eye more confidently and refer only the most severe cases.

What this could lead to
If successful, this AI tool could help primary care doctors quickly identify severe dry eye cases, leading to earlier specialist referral and better management.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 200 participants, and the AI algorithm is a prototype. It may not work better than current questionnaires or may miss some cases.
