• Abstract: Observing retinal fundus images by an ophthalmologist is a major diagnosis approach for glaucoma. However, it is still difficult to distinguish the features of the lesion solely through manual observations, especially, in glaucoma early phase. In this paper, we present two deep learning-based automated algorithms for glaucoma detection and optic disc and cup segmentation. We utilize the attention mechanism to learn pixel-wise features for accurate prediction. In particular, we present two convolutional neural networks that can focus on learning various pixel-wise level features. In addition, we develop several attention strategies to guide the networks to learn the important features that have a major impact on prediction accuracy. We evaluate our methods on the validation dataset and The proposed both tasks' solutions can achieve impressive results and outperform current state-of-the-art methods. \textit{The code is available at \url{https://github.com/cswin/RLPA}}.

  glaucoma is challenging to detect since it remains asymptomatic until the symptoms are severe. Early identification of glaucoma is generally made based on functional, structural, and clinical assessments. Deep learning methods have partially solved this dilemma by bypassing the marker identification stage and analyzing high-level information directly to classify the data.

  Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder primarily affecting premature infants with lower weights. It causes proliferation of vessels in the retina and could result in vision loss and, eventually, retinal detachment, leading to blindness. In recent years, there has been a significant effort to automate the diagnosis using deep learning. This paper builds upon the success of previous models and develops a novel architecture, which combines object segmentation and convolutional neural networks (CNN) Our proposed system first trains an object segmentation model to identify the demarcation line at a pixel level and adds the resulting mask as an additional "color" channel in
