Abstract

Purpose: To assess the accuracy and completeness of ChatGPT-generated answers regarding uveitis description, prevention, treatment, and prognosis.<br />Methods: Thirty-two uveitis-related questions were generated by a uveitis specialist and inputted into ChatGPT 3.5. Answers were compiled into a survey and were reviewed by five uveitis specialists using standardized Likert scales of accuracy and completeness.<br />Results: In total, the median accuracy score for all the uveitis questions ( n  = 32) was 4.00 (between "more correct than incorrect" and "nearly all correct"), and the median completeness score was 2.00 ("adequate, addresses all aspects of the question and provides the minimum amount of information required to be considered complete"). The interrater variability assessment had a total kappa value of 0.0278 for accuracy and 0.0847 for completeness.<br />Conclusion: ChatGPT can provide relatively high accuracy responses for various questions related to uveitis; however, the answers it provides are incomplete, with some inaccuracies. Its utility in providing medical information requires further validation and development prior to serving as a source of uveitis information for patients.
