Glaucoma Detection from Fundus Camera Image

One of the dangerous eye diseases is Glaucoma, over time it can cause blindness. When the disease is discovered early, the more serious condition will be prevented to occur. Increasing intra ocular pressure in eyes caused glaucoma and destroyed the seeing. If intra ocular pressure increased gradually this will not destroy the optic disc and people of this case suffer from ocular hypertension. The main clinical indicator to diagonals Glaucoma is vertical cup to disc ratio (CDR) that is defined as the ratio between the optic cup vertical diameter of fundus eye image to the optic disc diameter. Funds images obtained from funds camera have been used to the analysis and detection of glaucoma using image processing techniques Calculating the disk to cup ratio is expensive and perform only by experts therefore the applied automatic image technique will be presented, the morphological technique is applied to evaluate CDR value and classify that the person is normal or has glaucoma
