I am trying to predict the glucose values of the patients for example values like 45,256,115 etc. based on some features. Currently I am calculating the accuracy in means of RMSE,MSE,R². Is there any way to calculate the accuracy in means of a confusion matrix by setting a threshold value like ±10 for the value predicted. For example if the actual value is 110 and my prediction is 100 then we can tell that's it's kind of accurate since 100+10=110 where 10 is the threshold value. Any suggestions and some code to elaborate it will be very helpful.

I believe that there's no actual function in sklearn library that does that. However, that concept is relatively easy to implement: you can loop and compare each y_prediction with the respective y_true_value and increment TN, TP, FN, and FP accordingly to a certain threshold. For example:
if abs(y_pred[i] - y_true[i]) <= threshold:
TP += 1
elif abs(y_pred[i] - y_true[i]) > threshold:
TN += 1
...
Don't forget to reverse transform the scaling on y_true and y_pred values first.
