Abstract

BACKGROUND: Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a leading cause of vision loss globally. Routine health check-up data-including demographic information, medical history, and laboratory test results-are commonly utilized in clinical settings for disease risk assessment. This study aimed to develop a machine learning model to predict RVO risk in the general population using such tabular health data, without requiring coding expertise or retinal imaging.
