FREE Macular Degeneration Seminar tomorrow

Anna from Macular Degeneration NZ

Hi everyone, please don't take your vision for granted. If you are above the age of 40, you need to take note of this. Macular Degeneration is an age-related eye disease, affecting 1 in 7 people above the age of 50, and it is the leading cause of blindness in New Zealand!

There is a free talk tomorrow, Saturday, 13th March from 10am - 11.30am at North Shore Golf Club (51 Appleby Road, Albany) by ophthalmologist Dr. Narme Deva.

Please come and learn about the impact of Macular Degeneration, medical research, treatments and resources available. It is not too late to register for the event at www.mdnz.org.nz..., or email info@mdnz.org.nz

Remember: Early detection saves sight!
