A Comprehensive Review of CNN-Based Framework for Multi-Sign Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy in Fundus Images Using Public Datasets
Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the main causes of vision impairment. Blindness prevention and effective treatment depend on early detection. A thorough deep learning-based framework for the automatic segmentation and simultaneous detection of exudates, hemorrhages, and microaneurysms – three important DR indicators – from retinal fundus images is presented in this work. These three pathological signs’ corresponding annotated image patches, along with background (no-sign) areas, were used to train …

Survey on Retinal OCT Image Preprocessing, Segmentation, and Deep Learning Based Classification
Abstract: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive technique that generates high-resolution, detailed cross-sectional images of biological tissues. By utilizing low-coherence interferometry, OCT enables visualization of tissue microstructure with micron-scale resolution, making it useful in various medical fields such as ophthalmology, cardiology, and dermatology. In ophthalmology, OCT is extensively used for diagnosing and monitoring retinal diseases like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, allowing doctors to assess changes in tissue morphology over …

The Analysis of Deep Learning-Based Methods for Identifying Diabetic Retinopathy
Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a degenerative eye condition resulting from diabetes mellitus, where high blood glucose levels lead to lesions on the retina. This condition is considered the leading cause of blindness among working-age diabetic patients, particularly in developing countries. As the disease is irreversible, the treatment aims to preserve the patient’s current vision. Early detection is crucial for effective management of DR to maintain vision. One of the main …

Collaborative Care for Diabetic Retinopathy: Integrating Artificial Intelligence and Clinical Pharmacy Services - A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Background: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains the leading cause of blindness among working-age adults globally, affecting approximately 103 million people worldwide. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies with clinical pharmacy services presents unprecedented opportunities to enhance screening, diagnosis, and management of DR through collaborative care models. Objective: This comprehensive review examines the current landscape of collaborative care approaches for diabetic retinopathy management, focusing on the integration of AI-powered diagnostic tools …

A summary continuation analysis evaluating the prevalence and predictors of diabetic retinopathy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients.
Abstract: Context: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), the leading cause of acquired blindness in adults, affects approximately 93 million people globally. It is a serious complication of type 2 diabetes, resulting from prolonged damage to the blood vessels in the retina. Although largely preventable and treatable, DR continues to be the main cause of vision loss among working-age adults and significantly impacts quality of life. While most studies on DR in Nepal have …

Recent Trends in Ocular Drug Delivery: Challenges and Approaches
Abstract: Drug topically regulation can be accessed most easily in the eye. When given topically as eye drops, medication ocular bioavailability is quite low. Drug entry into specific ocular locations is complicated by the complex anatomy and physiology of the human eye. Research has long been interested in the topical administration of successful treatments. To provide a suitable ocular penetration and extend the duration of drug residence is their challenging task. …

Image Preprocessing and Analysis on Eye Fundus Images Segmentation by Using Density Clustering Methods
Abstract: In order to do an automated evaluation of various retinal illnesses such as Diabetic retinopathy, Glaucoma, and Macular Edema, fundus images must be pre-processed first. For many reasons, it's difficult to accurately detect the optic disc. Many blood vessels cross the optic disc, making it difficult to discern the disc's boundaries in fundus images. Lesion regions in diabetic retinopathy look very much like an optic disc's colour and texture, so …

Refining Retinal Layer Segmentation in OCT Imaging with Advanced Techniques and Clinical Applications
Abstract: Segmenting retinal layers from Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) pictures entails locating and separating different retinal layers to offer comprehensive anatomical and pathological information. Age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma are among the retinal illnesses for which this procedure is crucial for diagnosis and follow-up. By utilizing preprocessing techniques to improve image quality and applying advanced algorithms—such as intensity-based, gradient-based, and texture-based methods—alongside deep learning approaches, clinicians can accurately measure …
