AI eye scanner could catch glaucoma before it steals your sight
NCT ID NCT07550712
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested an AI tool called VeriSee GLC that analyzes color images of the back of the eye to find signs of glaucoma. Researchers looked at 773 adults' existing eye images to see how well the AI could identify people who might have glaucoma, comparing its results to a panel of eye experts. The goal is to give doctors a reliable screening tool to catch glaucoma earlier and refer patients for a full exam.
