Abstract
A spatially variant model is developed to simulate cataract degradation on retinal images, based on the results obtained from studying a pair of images taken from the same retina, one before cataract surgery and the other after surgery. In this model the blurring effect of the cataract on the retinal images is considered. The restoration process was implemented by applying the inverse of the model on the degraded image. Results showing the effect of the spatially variant cataract model as well as the performance of the corresponding restoration filter for enhancement of retinal images are presented
