Abstract: To image trabecolectomy blebs using anterior segment optical coherence tomography AS-OCT and to measure the blebs morphological features such as bleb height area and extend. In this paper fuzzy local information C-means clustering is used to segment the bleb boundary. A batch of 25 AS-OCT images are used to assess the performance of the determined parameters to the clinical parameters, and 91.43% accuracy is obtained in the determined parameters result. The mean value of bleb height, area and extend are 0.2 mm, 1.618 mm², 0.343 mm respectively. The result shows the potential applicability of the method for automated and objective mass screening for detection of bleb boundary.
