As a global umbrella organisation, Retina International’s work is centred around supporting and enhancing the activities of its membership.
This helps to ensure a common vision exists within the patient-led retina community; to guarantee equitable, immediate and appropriate access to essential healthcare for all people living with retinal conditions.
Retina International (RI) believes that education leading to patient participation in research, updating and influencing policy and producing further education and advocacy resources is key to successful innovation.
In this way, RI’s work is guided by three fundamental pillars which underline everything that the organisation does:
1. Empower
This is our Education, Outreach and Engagement pillar.
Through tailored education as well as information and experience exchange, we empower our members to effectively represent the patient perspective and be better able to influence research and health policy decisions.
