In the past two years, over 700 people have attended Glaucoma NZ’s symposiums, with 97% reporting greater confidence in managing their condition afterwards. Many of these events have also sparked the creation of ongoing volunteer-led support groups - extending the benefit well beyond a single day.

Freemasons Foundation has provided funds to help support these symposiums.

This means up to 700 people are directly supported, countless more reached through local awareness campaigns, and new peer networks built to reduce isolation and fear.
