Objective:

To provide a comparative evaluation of eight widely adopted transfer learning models for diagnosing ocular disorders, emphasizing both disease-specific performance and interpretability.

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • Different transfer learning models show varying performance across eye diseases, impacting clinical choices.
    • Explainable AI methods yield insights that enhance understanding beyond accuracy metrics.
    • Cross-model consistency indicates a need for segmentation-based models for effective glaucoma diagnosis.
    Interpretation:

    The study highlights the critical role of explainability in AI models for ocular disorder diagnosis, suggesting that enhanced interpretability can significantly improve clinical decision-making.

    Limitations:
    • The study does not propose a new methodology but evaluates existing models, limiting innovation.
    • Generalizability is constrained by the specific datasets utilized in the analysis.
    Conclusion:

    The findings emphasize the necessity of explainable AI in ocular disorder diagnosis, which can lead to improved understanding and decision-making in clinical environments.
