    An automated fundus image analysis is used as a tool for the diagnosis of common retinal diseases. A good quality fundus image results in better diagnosis and hence discarding the degraded fundus images at the time of screening itself provides an opportunity to retake the adequate fundus photographs, which save both time and resources. In this paper, we propose a novel fundus image quality assessment (IQA) model using the convolutional neural network (CNN) based on the quality of optic disc (OD) visibility. We localize the OD by transfer learning with Inception v-3 model. Precise segmentation of OD is done using the GrabCut algorithm. Contour operations are applied to the segmented OD to approximate it to the nearest circle for finding its center and diameter. For training the model, we are using the publicly available fundus databases and a private hospital database. We have attained excellent classification accuracy for fundus IQA on DRIVE, CHASE-DB, and HRF databases. For the OD segmentation, we have experimented our method on DRINS-DB, DRISHTI-GS, and RIM-ONE v.3 databases and compared the results with existing state-of-the-art methods. Our proposed method outperforms existing methods for OD segmentation on Jaccard index and F-score metrics

    Optic disk detection on retina image has become one of many initial steps in evaluation of Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) severity.  As much as early the step is, the result of the step is extremely essential. This article discusses the optic disk detection on retina image based on the color histogram value. The detection is done by using color histogram value which is taken from window sliding process with the size of 50x50 pixels. First, the candidates of optic disc were detected using Extreme Learning Machine towards the histogram value. Then the optic disc was selected form the candidates of optic which has highest average intensity. 4 retina image datasets were employed in the evaluation, including Drions dataset, DRIVE dataset, DiaretDB1 dataset, and Messidor dataset. The result of evaluation then validated by medical expert. The model outcome reaches the accuracy as much as 85,39 % for DiaretDB1 dataset, 95% for DRIVE dataset, 98,18% for Drions and 99% for Messidor dataset
