Just spent a fantastic day at the UKEGS (UK and Eire Glaucoma society) meeting so many great committed people. We are excited to have been just awarded an educational grant to start work on a new project working on improving the quality of life of people living with Glaucoma. It’s important work. To quote Glaucoma UK “Glaucoma affects more than 700,000 people in the UK, half of which don't know they have it. Anyone can develop the disease, though some people are at higher risk, including those with a family history of glaucoma”. Looking forward to collaborating with some incredible people across academia, charities, the health service and most importantly, people living with the condition.
