Thank you to everyone who attended our South Island patient education events. We loved connecting with communities across the South Island and sharing important conversations about glaucoma awareness, early detection, and eye health.

A special thank you to our incredible speakers in Blenheim, Nelson, and Hokitika, Martyn Crossley, Dr Antony Suter, Catherine Van Paassen and John West for generously sharing their knowledge and experience.

We’re also grateful to everyone who asked questions, shared their stories, and helped make these events so engaging and meaningful. Together, we can continue raising awareness and supporting people affected by glaucoma. Thank you to the Freemasons Foundations and our kind donors who made this possible.
