Abstract

Age-related macular degeneration is an eye disease, which leads to loss of eye in the elderly, due to degeneration of macula in retina. The disease comes within the one of the two types namely, 1) Dry ARMD and 2) Wet ARMD. The purpose of this paper is to diagnose the disease ARMD and classify the types it belongs to. The extent of the disease spread can be identified by extracting the features of the retina. Detection of the disease is done using Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) classifier. The accuracy of the proposed system is 78%.
