Resources and Support

"Every patient's journey is unique, but helpful support and understanding can be found among those facing the same challenges and experiences as you." — Australian Society of Ophthalmologists

At the ASO, we want to help every Australian find the right eye health support network or resources to suit their needs and personal preferences.

We hope these resources and links to support are of benefit to patients, and their family and friends.

To find the right support for you, search by condition name through the alphabetised listings below. Each title is hyperlinked, so click on it to be redirected to the relevant online website or resource.

Is there something we've missed? Email us at info@asoeye.org and we'll include any relevant patient resources or support information on this page.
