Abstract
Uveitis is an inflammatory infection that affects uvea tissue, the middle layer of the eyewall. It can result in swelling or damage to the eye and lead to vision impairments or blindness. Most Uveitis symptoms are associated with many other diseases localized to the eye. Thus, it is hard to determine the responsible symptoms for uveitis. Consequently, early detection of this disease can prevent a perilous situation in the future. The initial motivation behind the design of this mobile application is to help accurately diagnose uveitis with minimal time and effort and thereby minimize the shortage of human specialists in this field. The 'UveaTrack' is a hybrid mobile application that enables the keep tracking of uveitis eye illness and uses machine learning (ML) algorithms, deep learning (DL) architectures, and image processing techniques for developing the system. The 'UveaTrack' application could be able to achieve an average accuracy of more than 85% and had produced overall better results. Furthermore, the 'UveaTrack' application can use as a valuable instructional tool for freshly graduated clinicians, supporting their work with patients and assisting them in making diagnostics conclusions.
