Overview
This trial aims to provide a digital retinal image dataset from Pakistan, graded by three specialists according to the severity of Diabetic Retinopathy. The dataset aims to improve research and patient care.
Description
This clinical trial aims to address the scarcity of retinal image datasets in Pakistan by providing a comprehensive digital fundus photograph dataset, accompanied by expert grading. The dataset will encompass retinal images from Pakistani individuals, meticulously labeled by three Vitreo Retinal Specialists. These specialists will assess the presence and severity of common retinal disorders, including No Diabetic Retinopathy (No DR), Mild, Moderate, Severe, Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy, Clinically Significant Macular Edema (CSME), and Advance diabetic Eye Diseases (ADED). Each image will also be evaluated for diagnostic clarity and the presence of any additional findings. Final grading decisions will be reached through unanimous consensus among the graders, ensuring the dataset's reliability and accuracy. This initiative holds promise for advancing ophthalmic research and improving patient care in Pakistan and beyond.
