Vision Voice Summer 2018

Our Summer edition of celebrates the release both an important announcement and the release of valuable resources, both of which benefit the macular disease community.

 

Our front page carries news of an expanded listing for drugs on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) for two existing medicines; and a report on new training materials developed by MDFA to help improve eye health in residential aged care facilities. 

 

In our survey earlier this year, you told us you love hearing about research and we’ve delivered with a four-page update on the latest developments from Australia and around the world.

 

MDFA Patron Ita Buttrose has shared a great festive nut recipe that is both macula and diabetes friendly and we highlight the support services available through the MDFA Helpline. Did you know that as well as providing disease information and diet and lifestyle advice, our Helpline staff can help you navigate government supports and subsidies?
