Fundus diseases can cause irreversible vision loss in both eyes if not diagnosed and treated immediately. Due to the complexity of fundus diseases, the probability of fundus images containing two or more diseases is extremely high, while existing deep learning-based fundus image classification algorithms have low diagnostic accuracy in multi-labeled fundus images. In this paper, a multi-label classification of fundus disease with binocular fundus images is presented, using a neural network algorithm model based on attention mechanisms and feature fusion. The algorithm highlights detailed features in binocular fundus images, and then feeds them into a ResNet50 network with attention mechanisms to extract fundus image lesion features. The model obtains global features of binocular images through feature fusion and uses Softmax to classify multi-label fundus images. The ODIR binocular fundus image dataset was used to evaluate the network classification performance and conduct ablation experiments. The model’s backend is the Tensorflow framework. Through experiments on the test images, this method achieved accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 values of 94.23%, 99.09%, 99.23%, and 99.16%, respectively.
