Title: Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy by Screening of Fundus Images
Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy is diabetes complication that it affects the eyes. The diabetic retinopathy will cause blindness and vision loss. The DR is caused due to damage to the blood vessels of the eye, which contains the light sensitive tissue at the back of eye. The cause of damage to eye due to this procedure is called diabetic retinopathy. A patient who is suffering from the DR has to undergo regular or periodic screening of eye and to identify the DR. The ophthalmologists use retinal images of patients that images are acquired from digital fundus camera. There are different types of lesions they are Micro aneurysms (MAs), Haemorrhages (HEM) and Exudates (EXs). An screening of this lesions make the ophthalmologists to identify the patient who need further medical treatment. The detection of the micro aneurysms at an early stage helps us to preventing the DR. Regular screening of the DR and diabetic maculopathy diseases are necessary in order to identify the stages DR and to identify the group at risk of visual impairment. The main of this work is to increase the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection above 98% and 99%.
