  • Abstract
    Glaucoma is characterized by increased intraocular pressure, retinal ganglion cell degeneration, optic disc cupping and visual field loss forming is a chronic optic neuropathy. Glaucoma is an irreversible worldwide and the leading cause of preventable blindness. In this study we worked on an algorithm to detect the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) thickness using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images the glaucoma at image processing techniques.
