Yanbao: A Mobile App Using the Measurement of Clinical Parameters for Glaucoma Screening

Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide, and vision loss from glaucoma cannot be reversed. To remedy this issue, in this paper, a user-friendly mobile App, named Yanbao, is developed. Yanbao App is expected to help users conveniently share high-quality glaucoma screening service by using the proposed glaucoma screening algorithm based on clinical parameters. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first App specially designed for screening glaucoma. The main advantages of our App are: 1) the App has been developed for smartphone, which can be conveniently used at any place and at any time; 2) experiments on both public fundus database and real clinical data demonstrate that the App has good detection and classification accuracy; and 3) users’ feedback seems to be quite promising in terms of real-time testing and user experience. Thus, the App could be suitable for glaucoma screening in practice to improve the efficiency of clinicians, balance medical resources, and provide better tiered medical services. The Yanbao App can be available from the website
