The problem Diagnosis of retinal disorders from OCT solves

Retinal diseases are the most common cause of losing eyesight at an early age
OCT helps patients prevent or minimize vision loss by detecting retinal diseases in the early stages of treatment
Using the traditional approaches it takes a considerable amount of time to analyse and interpret the OCT images.
Retinal disease classification is a significant problem in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) for medical applications.
The proposed approach has a potential impact on creating a tool for automatically detecting retinal diseases.

Challenges I ran into

Data loading and model training consumed considerable amount of time making it difficult to reach over goal.
