Health professionals

​In Australia, the health professionals involved in the care of children with cataracts and their families are ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists and their support staff.  (See Glossary).

Cataract Kids Australia provides a focal point for health professionals and support staff involved in this area, as well as supporting family engagement in the cataract journey.
