AI is everywhere but how useful is it really in the context of ophthalmic drug delivery? This roundtable brings together developers, modelers, and formulation scientists to explore where AI is starting to make an impact, what problems it may solve in the future, and where the technology is still ahead of the data. 

• Where is AI genuinely helping today from polymer–drug matching to analyzing drug release profile predictions?
• How close are we to using AI to predict sustained-release performance and polymer selection without running multi-month studies?
• What are the biggest data gaps (even for widely used materials like PLGA) holding AI back from broader utility?
