Patient Voices


Patient Voices is a series of personal experiences from those who live with a macular disease.

There are an estimated 1.7 million Australians who have some evidence of a macular disease. While every individual’s journey is different, there are stories and experiences to be shared.

If you have any questions and a story you would like to share, please contact our National Helpline on 1800 111 709.

Patient Voices is proudly supported by Novartis Australia through an Unrestricted Patient Association Grant.
