Vision Voice Spring 2019

The Spring 2019 issue of Vision Voice leads with exciting news of federal funding for Australia’s first ever National Strategic Action Plan specifically for macular disease.

We report on a successful Macula Month awareness campaign and reveal startling statistics showing more than 60 per cent of Australians are unaware of the strong familial risks associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

We have an easy to prepare, macula friendly pasta recipe taken straight from MDFA’s feature in a recent Australian Women’s Weekly, an update on MDFA-funded research, information on how to listen to our new podcast series ‘See My World’ with Ita Buttrose, and so much more.

Please note: In track one, in the article on familial risk of AMD, the reader says: “People with siblings or parents with AMD are in a high risk category and have a 50 per cent chance of getting the risk.” This should be “a 50 per cent chance of getting the disease”.
