Scientists have developed a machine learning app that is being used to detect early symptoms of eye disease by scanning through a collection of photos. The app, called White Eye Detector, uses an algorithm to look for signs of white eye reflections in photos pretty similar to the red eyes you sometimes see in photos. The app is so accurate that in some children it spotted symptoms up over a year before it was diagnosed by doctors.
