Retinal image analysis is one of the important diagnosis methods in modern ophthalmology because eye information is present in the retina. The image acquisition process may have some effects and can affect the quality of the image. This can be improved by better image enhancement techniques combined with the computer-aided diagnosis system. Deep learning is one of the important computational application techniques used for a medical imaging application. The main aim of this article is to find the best enhancement techniques for the identification of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and are tested with the commonly used deep learning techniques, and the performances are measured. In this article, the input image is taken from the Indian-based database named as Indian Diabetic Retinopathy Image Dataset, and 13 filters are used including smoothing and sharpening filters for enhancing the images. Then, the quality of the enhancement techniques is compared using performance metrics and better results are obtained for Median, Gaussian, Bilateral, Wiener, and partial differential equation filters and are combined for improving the enhancement of images. The output images from all the enhanced filters are given as the convolutional neural network input and the results are compared to find the better enhancement method.
