Abstract

Timely diagnosis of ocular diseases is essential for preventing vision loss and ensuring effective treatment. This research proposes an autonomous deep learning-based system for detecting common eye diseases from retinal fundus images. The study utilizes the publicly available Ocular Disease Recognition dataset from Kaggle, which contains diverse, annotated retinal images. Our methodology involves pre-processing techniques for noise reduction and feature enhancement, followed by disease classification using EfficientNetB0, a highly efficient convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture optimized for performance and computational efficiency. The model is trained to identify four prevalent ocular diseases: glaucoma, cataract, age-related macular degeneration, and pathological myopia. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated using key metrics such as accuracy and precision, demonstrating its effectiveness in automated disease detection. By integrating AI-driven diagnosis into ophthalmology, this system offers a fast, noninvasive, and cost-effective solution, reducing the burden on healthcare professionals while enhancing early disease detection and patient outcomes.
