Optic Disc & Cup Segmentation: A Crucial Step Toward Early Glaucoma Detection

Glaucoma remains one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide — but with early detection, vision loss can be prevented. Among the most critical steps in this process is optic disc and cup segmentation, which enables precise analysis of the optic nerve head and supports accurate diagnosis.

Why Optic Disc & Cup Segmentation Matters:

The optic disc and cup are essential anatomical structures within the retina. Accurate segmentation allows clinicians and AI systems to evaluate changes in these regions, helping identify early signs of glaucoma before noticeable vision loss occurs.

Key benefits include:

  • Precise boundary identification – Differentiates optic disc and cup regions with high accuracy.
  • Reliable Cup-to-Disc Ratio (CDR) measurement – A crucial indicator for glaucoma assessment.
  • Enhanced diagnostic confidence – Supports ophthalmologists and AI-driven systems in detecting subtle changes.
  • Improved interpretation of retinal images – Reduces variability and enhances clinical insights.
