🌟Advancing our understanding of diabetic retinopathy 🌟 This October, Professor Chandra Balaratnasingam had the incredible opportunity to present at the renowned University of Michigan Kellogg Eye Center , one of the largest diabetes research centres in the USA and consistently ranked among the top 10 eye hospitals! 🏥✨ During his visit, Professor Balaratnasingam engaged with clinicians and directors of various research programs, sharing insights on our cutting-edge research on diabetic retina disease at the Lions Eye Institute. The depth of research at Kellogg truly impressed him, and he was thrilled to receive high praise for our complex diabetic research initiatives including our key program of work through the Perron Paediatric Retinopathy Initiative! 🤝 This collaboration with the Kellogg Eye Center opens doors for joint research opportunities, including scientist exchanges and grant applications. 🙌 Clinical Assistant Professor Julie Rosenthal et al recently published a viewpoint paper in JAMA Ophthalmology highlighting alarming rates of diabetic retinopathy in youth. Her summary from the SEARCH and TODAY studies shows that diabetic retinopathy is more prevalent than previously thought, with nearly 55 per cent of youth-onset type 2 diabetes patients affected after just 12 years of diabetes. At the Lions Eye Institute, we are dedicated to advancing our understanding of diabetic retinopathy, aiming for earlier detection and intervention to prevent permanent damage to vision. Together, we can make a difference! 💡👁️ #researchcollaboration #diabeticretinopathy #kelloggeyecenter #lionseyeinstitute #ophthalmology #diabetesresearch #healthcareinnovation

Refugees like Ma face high rates of vision loss, often from treatable eye conditions. On arrival in Perth, they, along with asylum seekers and Indigenous Australians, encounter unique challenges in accessing public eye care, such as long wait times, language barriers, financial and transport issues. The Lions InReach Vision (LIV) program, established in 2022 and led by Associate Professor Hessom Razavi, was created to break down these barriers. LIV provides a more accessible way for refugees, asylum seekers, and Indigenous Australians to receive both optometry and ophthalmology care, improving their overall eye health. Help us continue this vital work by supporting the Lions Eye Institute today.

🌟 Reflecting on an inspiring lecture with Professor Camiel Boon 🌟 On Thursday 17 October, we had the privilege of hosting Professor Camiel Boon for the Lions Eye Institute's Miocevich Lecture, and what a remarkable experience it was! His engaging presentation shed light on the latest technological advances and medical innovations that are driving us closer to finding a cure for rare diseases like retinitis pigmentosa. Professor Boon emphasised the complexities of gene therapy and of measuring if such therapy is effective in clinical trials. In particular, he showed some of his work on how visual field testing could show improvements due to treatments where visual acuity cannot. Our own Professors Allison McKendrick and Andrew Turpin are developing and testing new methods of field testing at the Lions Eye Institute, that if successful will lead to faster clinical trials for many potential treatments of visual disorders including gene therapy. To read more about some of their research, visit https://lnkd.in/gg8pjeUP One key takeaway from Professor Boon's lecture was the immense power of philanthropy in advancing research. Professor Boon underscored the importance of collaboration and multidisciplinary teams in accelerating discoveries that can transform lives. A heartfelt thank you to Professor Boon for his insightful lecture and for inspiring us all to push the boundaries of what's possible in eye research! 👁️💡 #lionseyeinstitute #Miocevichlecture #eyehealth #retinitispigmentosa #researchinnovation #philanthropy #collaboration #genetherapy Pictured below (L to R): Dr Glen Power, Professor Camiel Boon, Associate Professor Fred Chen and Mr and Mrs Miocevich and an image of Professor Boon on display at the event.
