To assess the accuracy and readability of responses generated by the artificial intelligence model, ChatGPT (version 4.0), to questions related to 10 essential domains of orbital and oculofacial ...disease.
A set of 100 questions related to the diagnosis, treatment, and interpretation of orbital and oculofacial diseases was posed to ChatGPT 4.0. Responses were evaluated by a panel of 7 experts based on appropriateness and accuracy, with performance scores measured on a 7-item Likert scale. Inter-rater reliability was determined via the intraclass correlation coefficient.
The artificial intelligence model demonstrated accurate and consistent performance across all 10 domains of orbital and oculofacial disease, with an average appropriateness score of 5.3/6.0 ("mostly appropriate" to "completely appropriate"). Domains of cavernous sinus fistula, retrobulbar hemorrhage, and blepharospasm had the highest domain scores (average scores of 5.5 to 5.6), while the proptosis domain had the lowest (average score of 5.0/6.0). The intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.64 (95% CI: 0.52 to 0.74), reflecting moderate inter-rater reliability. The responses exhibited a high reading-level complexity, representing the comprehension levels of a college or graduate education.
This study demonstrates the potential of ChatGPT 4.0 to provide accurate information in the field of ophthalmology, specifically orbital and oculofacial disease. However, challenges remain in ensuring accurate and comprehensive responses across all disease domains. Future improvements should focus on refining the model's correctness and eventually expanding the scope to visual data interpretation. Our results highlight the vast potential for artificial intelligence in educational and clinical ophthalmology contexts.
Palpation of the orbit is also important since a tense orbit with resistance to globe retropulsion can be diagnostic of orbital compartment syndrome in both conscious and unconscious patients.2 ...Orbital compartment syndrome is a surgical emergency and must be treated with lateral canthotomy and cantholysis (severing of the tendon attachments from the orbital rim);2-4 lateral canthotomy alone does not relieve raised intraorbital pressure.2,4 Because the lateral canthal tendon firmly anchors the eyelids to the orbital rim, cantholysis allows the orbital contents to expand forward, thereby relieving intraorbital pressure.
