COVID-19 has affected us all. However, for the visually impaired community, the migration of many services online has raised some accessibility barriers higher than ever before.
Retina International are conducting a follow-on survey to further understand and report on the impact of COVID-19 to the retina patient community, particularly with regard to accessibility of essential and recreational online services.
We are especially eager to hear from the the ageing community, and those living with Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Diabetic Macular Edema (DME), Geographic Atrophy (GA) or Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), about their experiences during this challenging time.

We are also delighted to hear from our IRD community, particularly parents of children living with IRDs in relation to special challenges attributed to school and education.

If you think this survey may be relevant to your community, please feel welcome to share!
We will continue to collect responses until December 8th 2020.
