The processing of images is a major task in several domains like medical treatment, military, and surveillance. However, the major reasons, like environmental criteria and technical issues made the imperative information tainted. The blurriness represents degradations induced on the image that affected image contrast. There exist several techniques based on image enhancement to improve image quality, but most of these techniques are complex to examine and impose image degradation. An optimized deep technique is devised for producing quality pictures in which the input image is gathered from the database. The pre-processing is done utilizing the median filter to discard the artefacts as well as the noise accumulated in the images. The image enhancement is done with a Deep Convolutional Neural network (DCNN) and the weight update in DCNN is carried out with the Honey Badger Optimization Algorithm (HBA). Thus, the DCNN-HBA helps to enhance the quality of the image without any kind of degradation, like blurriness. The DCNN-HBA technique provides better results with the highest mutual information (MI), highest universal quality index (UQI), maximum UQI, and enhanced efficacy of image enhancement. The highest structural similarity index measurement (SSIM) is the maximum SSIM.
