    Retinal diseases are a leading cause of vision loss, with OCT being crucial for diagnosis and monitoring of conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.

  • 2

    OCT analysis is subjective and varies among ophthalmologists, leading to potential misdiagnosis, highlighting the need for objective automated diagnostic methods.

  • 3

    Deep learning, particularly lightweight neural networks, can enhance OCT image analysis by reducing computational complexity while maintaining high accuracy.

  • 4

    This study utilizes a lightweight neural network with semi-supervised learning to classify nine types of OCT lesions, improving diagnostic support in resource-limited settings.

  • 5

    The research aims to enhance clinical outcomes by providing precise auxiliary diagnostic support, addressing challenges in traditional OCT image analysis.
