Large language model integration in Philippine ophthalmology: early challenges and steps forward
The integration of large language models (LLMs) in ophthalmology holds innovative potential, as highlighted by Bjorn K Betzler and colleagues.1 We agree that LLMs in ophthalmology is a domain meriting exploration. Beyond technical and regulatory limitations in real-world implementation, unique and important barriers to LLM integration exist in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), such as the Philippines, which hinder its applicability.
