AI-guided personalized predictions on myopia progression and interventions
Myopia is a major global health concern, particularly in Asia, with high prevalence and risks of vision-threatening complications. Current interventions have limitations (cost, duration, adverse effects). This study develops the Myopia Progression Predictive Model (MPPM), a Transformer-based AI model, to provide precision myopia management. MPPM has two modules: Natural Progression Module (NPM) for predicting untreated progression and Intervention Progression Module (IPM) for forecasting progression under specific interventions. NPM was trained on over 1.1 million refractive records and achieved high accuracy (SE R²=0.94, MAE=0.35D; AL R²=0.91, MAE=0.16mm). IPM, using a causal machine learning framework, accurately predicted myopia changes under various interventions (Atropine, Ortho-K, PDS, RLRL) with high R² (>0.80) and low MAE (<0.45D). RLRL therapy even showed a slight reversal of myopia progression. MPPM offers a promising AI-driven platform for personalized prediction and optimization of pediatric myopia management.
The MPPM model significantly enhances precision in myopia management by providing individualized 10-year predictions for spherical equivalent (SE) and axial length (AL) and quantifying treatment benefits. This enables earlier, more targeted interventions for high-risk pediatric patients, reducing costs, risks, and improving clinical outcomes by optimizing resource allocation and treatment strategies.
Executive Impact: Addressing Critical Gaps in Myopia Management
Myopia is a critical global health issue, especially high myopia, which can lead to irreversible vision loss. Existing AI models for myopia prediction lack accurate long-term (10-year) axial length (AL) growth predictions and individualized quantitative treatment benefit assessments. Current interventions (atropine, Ortho-K, PDS, RLRL) have limitations in terms of costs, treatment duration, and potential adverse effects, necessitating more precise and personalized management strategies.
This study introduces the Myopia Progression Predictive Model (MPPM), a Transformer-based AI model. It features a Natural Progression Module (NPM) for predicting untreated myopia progression and an Intervention Progression Module (IPM) for forecasting progression under specific treatments. IPM incorporates a causal machine learning framework to estimate individualized treatment effects (ITEs) by mitigating confounding factors. This model provides accurate long-term SE and AL predictions and quantifies the benefits of various myopia control interventions.

Case Study: Real-world Impact of MPPM
Scenario: A 9-year-old patient with rapidly progressing myopia. Current clinical methods offer general guidance.
Solution: MPPM analyzes the patient's longitudinal data, predicts a 10-year progression without intervention, and forecasts the individualized benefits of Ortho-K, Atropine, and RLRL. The model identifies RLRL as the most effective for this specific patient, predicting a significant reversal in SE.
Outcome: Clinicians can now make data-driven, personalized recommendations, potentially halting progression and improving long-term visual outcomes more effectively than general guidelines, optimizing treatment choice and resource allocation.
