The application of artificial intelligence-generated content in ophthalmology education.

With the rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology, AI has played a significant role in ophthalmology clinical applications, and AI-generated content (AIGC) has shown great potential in ophthalmology education. Specifically, AIGC plays an important role in lesson plan generation, simulated cases, and disease diagnosis, but its application also faces challenges related to the invasion of patient privacy and the accuracy of generated content. To better enable AIGC and promote the development of ophthalmology education, this article provides an overview of AI and ophthalmology and the application, challenges, and development prospects of AIGC in ophthalmology education.
