Using artificial intelligence (#AI) ChatGPT to Access Medical Information About Chemical Eye Injuries: Comparative Study Background: Chemical ocular injuries are a major public health issue, causing eye damage from harmful chemicals and potentially leading to severe vision loss or blindness if not treated promptly and effectively. Although medical knowledge has advanced, accessing reliable and understandable information on these injuries remains challenging due to unverified online content and complex terminology. artificial intelligence (#AI) (AI) tools like ChatGPT provide a promising solution by simplifying medical information and making it more accessible to the general public. Objective: This study aims to assess the use of ChatGPT in providing reliable, accurate, and accessible medical information on chemical ocular injuries. It evaluates the correctness, thematic accuracy, and coherence of ChatGPT’s responses compared to established medical guidelines and explores its potential for patient education. Methods: Nine questions were entered to ChatGPT regarding various aspects of chemical ocular injuries, including : definition, prevalence, etiology, prevention, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, follow- up, and complications. The responses provided by ChatGPT were compared to the ICD-9 and ICD-10 guidelines for chemical (alkali and acid) injuries of the conjunctiva and cornea. The evaluation focused on criteria such as correctness, thematic accuracy, coherence to assess the accuracy of ChatGPT’s answers. The inputs were categorized into three distinct groups, and statistical analyses, including Flesch–Kincaid readability tests, ANOVA, and trend analysis, were conducted to assess their readability, complexity and trends. Results: The results showed that ChatGPT provided accurate and coherent responses for most questions about chemical ocular injuries, demonstrating thematic relevance. However, the responses sometimes overlooked critical clinical details or guideline-specific elements, such as emphasizing the urgency of care, using precise classification systems, and addressing detailed diagnostic or management protocols. While the answers were generally valid, they occasionally included less relevant or overly generalized information, reducing their consistency with established medical guidelines. The average FRES was 33.84 ± 0.28, indicating a fairly challenging reading level, while the FKGL averaged 14.21 ± 0.22, suitable for readers with college-level proficiency. Passive voice was used in 7.22% ± 0.66% of sentences, indicating moderate reliance. Statistical analysis showed no significant differences in FRES (p =.385), FKGL (p =.555), or passive sentence usage (p =.601) across categories, as determined by one-way ANOVA. Readability remained relatively constant across the three categories as determined by trend analysis . Conclusions: ChatGPT shows strong potential in providing accurate and relevant information about chemical ocular injuries. However, Its language complexity may prevent accessibility for individuals with lower health literacy and sometimes miss critical aspects. Future improvements should focus on enhancing readability, increasing context-specific accuracy, and tailoring responses to person needs and literacy levels. While ChatGPT can be a helpful tool for patients and healthcare professionals, it shouldn’t replace professional medical advice, as some responses might not match clinical practice or address the needs of patients with different levels of education.

The Influence of Medical Expertise and Information Search Skills on Medical Information Searching: Comparative Analysis From a Free Data Set Background: Nowadays, the internet has become the primary source of information for physicians seeking answers to medical questions about their patients before consulting colleagues. However, many websites provide low-quality, unreliable information that lacks scientific validation. Therefore, physicians must develop strong information search skills to locate relevant, accurate, and evidence-based content. However, previous studies have shown that physicians often have poor search skills and struggle to find information on the web, which may have detrimental consequences for patient care. Objective: This study aims to determine how medical students and residents searched for medical information on the internet, the quality of the web resources they used (including their nature and credibility), and how they evaluated the reliability of these resources and the answers they provided. Given the importance of domain knowledge (in this case, medicine) and information search skills in the search process, we compared the search behaviors of medical students and residents with those of computer science students. While medical students and residents possess greater medical-related knowledge, computer science students have stronger information search skills. Methods: A total of 20 students participated in this study: 10 medical students and residents, and 10 computer science students. Data were extracted from a freely accessible data set in accordance with FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles. All participants searched for medical information online to make a diagnosis, select a treatment, and enhance their knowledge of a medical condition—3 primary activities they commonly perform. We analyzed search performance metrics, including search time, the use of medical-related keywords, and the accuracy of the information found, as well as the nature and credibility of web resources used by medical students and residents compared with computer science students. Results: Medical students and residents provided more accurate answers than computer science students without requiring additional time. Their medical expertise also enabled them to better assess the reliability of resources and select high-quality web sources, primarily from hospital websites. However, it is noteworthy that they made limited use of evidence-based tools such as PubMed. Conclusions: Although medical students and residents generally outperformed computer science students, they did not frequently use evidence-based tools. As previously observed, they may avoid databases due to the risk of encountering too many irrelevant articles and difficulties in applying appropriate filters to locate relevant information. Nevertheless, clinical and practical evidence-based medicine plays a crucial role in updating physicians’ knowledge, improving patient care, and enhancing physician-patient relationships. Therefore, information search skills should be an integral part of medical education and continuing professional development for physicians.
