Thank you to Prof Paul Stoddart from @Swinburne for his exciting talk on using nanoparticles to stimulate retinal ganglion cells. He also delivered the hottest seminar of our series… so hot that we had to evacuate and call the fire brigade🔥🚒

Exciting results! Co-care audit between @RCHMelbourne Ophthalmology and Melbourne Eyecare Clinic (MEC) has confirmed that eye care at MEC meets best practices, and that there are no differences in quality to hospital-based tertiary care. @UniMelbMDHS go.unimelb.edu.au/xn7s
