Retina UK has a number of online support resources which we offer via social media.

If you, or a close relative, are living with a genetic sight loss condition, there may be a chance that your children will inherit it.

Giving a regular monthly or quarterly donation of any amount is a wonderful way to help Retina UK support the inherited sight loss community.

Did you join either of our Conferences this year? You can read about them inside this edition of Look Forward. We’ve had some fantastic feedback from our delegates so if you weren’t able to attend, you can watch or listen to the recordings from the day on our website.
