Abstract

Human eyes are susceptible to various abnormalities due to aging, trauma, and diseases like diabetes. Glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy are the leading causes of blindness worldwide. It is crucial to detect and diagnose these eye diseases early to provide timely treatment and prevent vision loss. Multiple eye disease detection through the analysis of medical images can aid in this process. The steps involved in the detection of multiple eye diseases using deep learning include image acquisition, region of interest extraction, feature extraction, and disease classification or detection. In this study, we proposed a model using deep learning algorithms, ResNetand VGG16, to detect eye diseases such as uveitis, glaucoma, crossed eyes, bulging eyes, and cataracts. We achieved a 92% accuracy rate using ResNet50 and 79% accuracy using the VGG16 model. By automating the detection process, we can save time for doctors and increase the accuracy and detection rate. The proposed model can be integrated into the healthcare system to assist in early diagnosis and effective treatment of eye diseases.
