Detecting central fixation by means of artificial neural networks in a pediatric vision screener using retinal birefringence scanning

Abstract Background Reliable detection of central fixation and eye alignment is essential in the diagnosis of amblyopia (“lazy eye”), which can lead to blindness. Our lab has developed and reported earlier a pediatric vision screener that performs scanning of the retina around the fovea and analyzes...
