Comparative Analysis of Deep Learning Methods for Detection of Keratoconus

Abstract

Keratoconus eye disease is not an inflammatory corneal disease that is caused by progress in thinning of the cornea, scarring, and deformation in the shape of the cornea. In India, there is a significant increase in the number of cases of keratoconus, and several research centers have been paying attention to this disease in recent years. In this situation, there is an immediate need for tools that simplify both diagnosis and treatment[1]. The algorithm developed can decide whether the eye is a normal eye or keratoconus eye with stages. The K-net model analyzes the pentagram images of the eye using a convolutional neural network(CNN) a deep learning model and pre-trained ResNet-50 and InceptionV3 pre-trained models and does the comparative analysis of the accuracies of these models. The results show that the Keratoconus Detection algorithm leads to a good job, with a 93.75 percent accuracy on the data test collection. Keratoconus Detection model is a program that can help ophthalmologists test their patients faster, therefore reducing diagnostic errors and facilitating treatment.
