Van Herick technique is a qualitative tool for assessing the anterior chamber angle and can be exploited as a simple screening alternative to gonioscopy. In our previous papers, we presented a novel instrument able to automatically perform the Van Herick manoeuvre. Therefore, to fully automate the screening method from the acquired images, it is still necessary to automatically determine the Van Herick grade. In this paper, we present a deep learning algorithm for automatically determining the Van Herick grade. In particular, the performances of three different Convolutional Neural Networks have been verified by acquiring the eye images of 80 patients. All the networks return the Van Herick grade classification with sufficient accuracy for a screening system and, after proper training, can offer a real-time response.
