​​Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated significant advancements in the domain of fundus images owing to their exceptional capability to learn meaningful features. By appropriately processing and analyzing fundus images, computer-aided diagnosis systems can furnish healthcare practitioners with valuable reference information for clinical diagnosis or screening purposes. Nevertheless, prior investigations have predominantly concentrated on detecting individual fundus diseases, while the simultaneous diagnosis of multiple fundus diseases continues to pose substantial challenges. Furthermore, the majority of previous studies have prioritized diagnostic accuracy as their main focus. Efficient Deep Learning constitutes a crucial concept that enables the utilization of deep learning models on edge devices, thereby reducing the computational carbon footprint. Facilitating the cost-effective diagnosis of eye diseases from fundus images on edge devices holds significance for researchers aiming to deploy these vital healthcare models into practical use. This study focuses on assessing the performance of well-known efficient deep learning models in addressing the multi-label classification problem of fundus images. The models underwent training and testing using the dataset provided by ODIR 2019 (Peking University International Competition on Ocular Disease Intelligent Recognition). The experimental findings demonstrate that the efficientnetb3 model outperforms the other models, exhibiting the highest level of performance. And also, when applying standard data augmentation techniques to the current dataset, we observe decreasing in f1-score and accuracy.
