Microvasculature change accompanying with persistent Hyperglycemia (High Blood Glucose) are the unpleasant things associated to diabetes mellitus. With the development of intelligent systems the detection of pathologies is made simple. Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy is a chronic state in which new abnormal blood vessels grows in the fundus of eye. These are sensitive and are ruptured easily leaking blood, protein based exudates. Early detection of such symptoms may protect the patient from
