• Question: if you found a way to prevent sight loss, who would give the treatment to first, would it be people in our country first or across the world to the less fortunate places??

      Hi u28collinse
      In fact the treatment would first be used on people in our country – but that’s just because the law, plus the huge expense of trying something in people for the first time, mean that we have to do it here. However, as soon as the treatment is approved then it can round the world and I would certainly like to think it could benefit all.
