Artificial Intelligence (AI) in early triaging of referred patients with retinal disease – AI Solutions in Ophthalmic healthcare.

Ophthalmology has the highest number of outpatient appointments, and one of the longest treatment backlogs in the NHS, 7.5 million in 2021/22 alone (England). 158,258 new patients with sight-threatening blinding disease were waiting for an outpatient appointment in 2024 (Wales). We aimed to integrate and test a cloud-based AI framework to the referrals process, early in a patient pathway, available at a national scale, which interfaces into the NHS Wales national architecture. Referral images are analyzed by AI and recommendations added to referral.
