diabetic-retinopathy-prediction

The fastest growing cause of blindness is diabetic retinopathy or DB. This occurs when high blood sugar causes damage to blood vessels in the retina causing vision problems. There are four stages of DR, including mild non-proliferative when small areas of the blood vessels swell, moderate non-proliferative when entire blood vessels swell, severe non-proliferative when several blood vessels blocked, and proliferative when new blood vessels are formed and retinal detachment is possible. Interestingly, early detection can reduce the risk of blindness by 95%. However, the lack of doctors and inconsistency on eye exams causes difficulty of detection. This project focuses on leveraging machine learning techniques to improve accuracy in eye exam detection and the overall impact of DR in society.
