Two six-category deep learning models of common retinal diseases based on the EfficientNet-B4 and ResNet50 models were trained. The results from the six-category models in this study and the results from a five-category model in our previous study based on ResNet50 were compared. A total of 1,315 fundus images were used to test the models, the clinical diagnosis results and the diagnosis results of the two six-category models were compared. The main evaluation indicators were sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, area under the curve (AUC), 95% confidence interval, kappa and accuracy, and the receiver operator characteristic curves of the two six-category models were compared in the study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The diagnostic accuracy rate of EfficientNet-B4 model was 95.59%, the kappa value was 94.61%, and there was high diagnostic consistency. The AUC of the normal diagnosis and the five retinal diseases were all above 0.95. The sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score for the diagnosis of normal fundus images were 100, 99.9, and 99.83%, respectively. The specificity and F1-score for RVO diagnosis were 95.68, 98.61, and 93.09%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score for high myopia diagnosis were 96.1, 99.6, and 97.37%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score for glaucoma diagnosis were 97.62, 99.07, and 94.62%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score for DR diagnosis were 90.76, 99.16, and 93.3%, respectively.
