Hyperglycemia is a complication of diabetes (high blood sugar). This condition causes biochemical alterations in the cells of the body, which may lead to structural and functional problems throughout the body, including the eye. Diabetes retinopathy (DR) is a type of retinal degeneration induced by long-term diabetes that may lead to blindness. propose our deep learning method for the early detection of retinopathy using an efficient net B1 model and using the APTOS 2019 dataset. we used the Gaussian filter as one of the most significant image-processing algorithms. It recognizes edges in the dataset and reduces superfluous noise. We will enlarge the retina picture to 224×224 (the Efficient Net B1 standard) and utilize data augmentation methods to enhance the dataset photographs, and balance the dataset (which was quite uneven), to avoid overfitting. By using Transfer learning we save training time by using a previously learned deep CNN and transfer learning weights. In this research, EfficientNetB1 is compared against Xception, InceptionV3, MobileNet, and ResNet50 as a deep transfer learning model. The proposed model's accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score are all examined. The EfficientNetB1 model outperforms all others in terms of overall testing accuracy (86.1%), sensitivity (87.24%), precision (97.6%), and F1-Score (89.32 percent). This approach might help physicians diagnose Diabetic Retinopathy earlier.
