Abstract

In the paper that we are proposing we make use of the image processing technique that can be further used to detect or predict whether the eye is glaucomatic which leads to increase in the size of the optic cup in turn affecting the optic disc. Glaucoma being the second major reason for blindness was very difficult to detect in the early stages. Here in this paper, we make use of the retinal fundus images and glaucoma is being detected using the features that we extract from the fundus images. The first feature that we extract includes one of the basic physiological parameters which is the Cup to Disc ratio (CDR) and the second feature that we extract is the neuro retinal rim which has the inferior, superior, nasal and the temporal quadrants often called the ISNT quadrants which can be used to detect glaucoma in the fundus image of the eye.

Keywords:

Glaucoma, Fundus Images, Cup to Disc Ratio (CDR).
