Abstract

PURPOSE: Accurate identification of iridocorneal structures on gonioscopy is difficult to master, and errors can lead to grave surgical complications. This study aimed to develop and train convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to accurately identify the trabecular meshwork (TM) in gonioscopic videos in real time for eventual clinical integrations.
