AGE: Angle closure Glaucoma Evaluation Challenge

Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world, and primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is one of the main subtypes. PACG patients have narrow chamber angle and can be diagnosed by goniscopy, which may cause discomfort and relies too much on personal experience. Anterior segment OCT is able to provide 3D scan of the anterior chamber and assist the ophthalmologists evaluate the condition of chamber angle. It’s faster and objective compare with goniscopy. Here, we set up the challenge on development of automatic algorithms about grading of angle width and recognition of important anatomical markers such as scleral spur.
