Research round-up, spring 2023
Progress towards treatments for inherited retinal conditions continues to gather pace and there’s been lots going on in the last few months, with more and more approaches being explored. This round-up gives a flavour of the variety of developments, including plenty that are not specific to a particular genetic fault.
Clinics
Genetic testing and counselling services are usually coordinated through a main hospital where the eye clinic or clinical service is based; some also have clinics in local hospitals across the service’s area.
Fundraising
Raise money to help support people affected by inherited sight loss to lead better lives today and accelerate the search for treatments for the future.
Discover Wellbeing
We have created Discover Wellbeing to help people affected by inherited sight loss to develop an awareness of emotional wellbeing and the practical skills to adapt to life’s ups and downs.
Let’s talk about tech
As people living with sight loss we are constantly looking for solutions to make our lives easier without too much effort or cost writes Jonathan Abro.
