New support for people with diabetes-related eye conditions

MDFA has expanded its free Eye Connect service to support Australians living with diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular oedema.

New service supports people living with diabetes-related eye conditions

In response to the growing need for support among people with diabetes-related eye conditions Macular Disease Foundation Australia (MDFA) is partnering with Diabetes Australia’s KeepSight to expand its successful Eye Connect service to include Australians living with diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular oedema.

Celebrating 25 years of impact – together

As we prepare to mark our 25th anniversary, we’re reflecting on the journey so far – and the incredible community that made it possible.

MDFA announces $200,000 grant for Geographic Atrophy (GA) research

As part of our 25th anniversary celebrations, we’re excited to introduce the MDFA 25th Anniversary Award – a major new research grant to support Australian-led research into GA. There is a clear need to prioritise research that addresses critical knowledge gaps in this area.

New research award targets vision health in regional and rural Australia

The Elisabeth Macdonald Memorial Award, announced in the lead up to World Sight Day (9 October 2025) and marking the start of MDFA’s 25th anniversary year, will fund innovative research focused on improving diagnosis, treatment, and support for people living with macular or retinal disease outside major cities.
