Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is one of the major causes of vision impairment that affect millions of people worldwide. Early detection of nAMD is crucial because, if untreated, it can lead to blindness. Software and algorithms that utilize artificial intelligence (AI) have become valuable tools for early detection, assisting doctors in diagnosing and facilitating differential diagnosis. AI is particularly important for remote or isolated communities, as it allows patients to endure tests and receive rapid initial diagnoses without the necessity of extensive travel and long wait times for medical consultations. Similarly, AI is notable also in big hubs because cutting-edge technologies and networking help and speed processes such as detection, diagnosis, and follow-up times. The automatic detection of retinal changes might be optimized by AI, allowing one to choose the most effective treatment for nAMD. The complex retinal tissue is well-suited for scanning and easily accessible by modern AI-assisted multi-imaging techniques. AI enables us to enhance patient management by effectively evaluating extensive data, facilitating timely diagnosis and long-term prognosis. Novel applications of AI to nAMD have focused on image analysis, specifically for the automated segmentation, extraction, and quantification of imaging-based features included within optical coherence tomography (OCT) pictures. To date, we cannot state that AI could accurately forecast the therapy that would be necessary for a single patient to achieve the best visual outcome. A small number of large datasets with high-quality OCT, lack of data about alternative treatment strategies, and absence of OCT standards are the challenges for the development of AI models for nAMD.
