摘要： In medicine, the diagnosis of diseases by means of image processing has had great acceptability and credibility, which is why it has been able to explore in depth the theme, taking advantage of mainly which is a non-invasive method within the clinical study. Glaucoma is considered as a group of diseases that damages the optic nerve to the point of causing blindness in the eye, with the disadvantage of in most cases do not exhibit early symptoms.
