Vision Voice Summer 2019

 
The Summer 2019 issue of Vision Voice features an article on the proposed changes to Medicare for eye injections and how MDFA is responding. MDFA is committed to ensuring the voice of patients is heard throughout the consultation process and will continue to advocate against any cuts to the eye injection rebate. 
 
This edition also includes information about our Macular Disease Impact Survey going out in February. We hope to hear from you about the impact of living with macular disease. There are highlights of some of the latest clinical trials as well as a delicious and eye health friendly Christmas meal for the whole family to enjoy.
