Glaucoma Characteristics
• Thinning of neuroretinal rim

Glaucoma classification, based on CDR
(i) Preprocessing
(ii) Segmentation
(iii) Classification
- These methods subtract the estimated retinal background from the original
image to gain a homogeneously illuminated fundus image.
Results:
(I) Original fundus image (ii) Image in Green (iii) Estimated Background (iv) Image obtained by (v) Illumination corrected
channel image subtracting (iii) from (ii) image

Homomorphic Filters
• Homomorphic filters have been used in signal processing methods since the
1970s.

(i) Original fundus (ii) Gray image (iii) Estimated background (v) Illumination corrected

• Median filtering shows a better results compared to other two techniques for a
given set of images.
