摘要

This study introduces an automated system for detecting strabismus and analyzing corneal deviations using advanced image processing techniques. The system classifies different types of squints by calculating the Vertical Equation Ratio (VER) and Horizontal Equation Ratio (HER). Additionally, corneal deviations are quantified through the Cosine Angle Method to determine Horizontal and Vertical Corneal Degree Deviations (HCDD and VCDD). A vector-based direction analysis is utilized to identify the direction of deviation, with positive values indicating exotropia or hypertropia, and negative values indicating esotropia or hypotropia. The methodology integrates Mediapipe that was developed by Google with large datasets for precise feature point detection utilizing 468 facial landmarks for precise eye and iris boundary detection and applies geometric and trigonometric computations for enhanced accuracy. The proposed algorithms effectively classify squint types—esotropia, exotropia, hypertropia, and hypotropia—and measure their respective degrees of deviation.
