- Abstract: Globally, cataract is a common eye disease and one of the leading causes of
blindness and vision impairment. The traditional process of detecting cataracts
involves eye examination using a slit-lamp microscope or ophthalmoscope by an
ophthalmologist, who checks for clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye.
The lack of resources and unavailability of a sufficient number of experts pose
a burden to the healthcare system throughout the world, and researchers are
exploring the use of AI solutions for assisting the experts. Inspired by the
progress in iris recognition, in this research, we present a novel algorithm
for cataract detection using near-infrared eye images. The NIR cameras, which
are popularly used in iris recognition, are of relatively low cost and easy to
operate compared to ophthalmoscope setup for data capture. However, such NIR
images have not been explored for cataract detection. We present deep
learning-based eye segmentation and multitask network classification networks
for cataract detection using NIR images as input. The proposed segmentation
algorithm efficiently and effectively detects non-ideal eye boundaries and is
cost-effective, and the classification network yields very high classification
performance on the cataract dataset.

Approaching in Robotic Eye Surgery [51.05595735405451]
Robotic ophthalmic surgery is an emerging technology to facilitate high-precision interventions such as retina penetration in subretinal injection and removal of floating tissues in retinal detachment.
Current image-based methods cannot effectively estimate the needle tip's trajectory towards both retinal and floating targets.
We propose to use the shadow positions of the target and the instrument tip to estimate their relative depth position.
Our method succeeds target approaching on a retina model, and achieves an average depth error of 0.0127 mm and 0.3473 mm for floating and retinal targets respectively in the surgical simulator.

Periocular recognition has gained attention recently due to demands of increased robustness of face or iris in less controlled scenarios.
We present a new system for eye detection based on complex symmetry filters, which has the advantage of not needing training.
This system is used as input to a periocular algorithm based on retinotopic sampling grids and Gabor spectrum decomposition.

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.
