Festive Appeal 2025

Make your wish to cure vision loss and blindness our mission in 2026

In the lead up to the festive season, we asked our researchers what their mission for year ahead is and what your generous donation could mean for their research.

CERA’s world-class researchers are also setting their intentions for 2026 as they continue their vital research. The driver of all our research is to improve people’s lives through treatments and technologies that aim to restore sight and prevent blindness. Your wish for a world free from vision loss and blindness is a goal you share with everyone at CERA.

In 2026, Associate Professor Lisa Zhuoting Zhu is working towards helping spot heart disease and kidney failure though an eye scan.

Erin Gee is looking to confirm a connection between nocturnal hypoxia and wet AMD – potentially the first modifiable risk factor for the condition in decades.

Dr Luis Alarcon-Martinez will investigate how a newly found structure might play a role in glaucoma.

This kind of research is a collaboration between the discovery team, CERA’s clinical researchers, trial participants, and you, as we work together towards achieving better treatments and faster diagnosis of eye disease through our shared knowledge and expertise.
