In the program for the week of April 10, we dip in to a wealth of content available from Vision 2014, the international conference on low vision held in Melbourne from March 31 through to April 3.

In this program we bring you proceedings from the opening session with an introduction from the conference chair followed by the informing and interesting address to launch the event by former Governor General of Australia Michael Jeffery. Major General Jeffery is Chair of the Australian Subsidiary of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust and explains its endeavours to eradicate avoidable blindness.

In the program you can hear:
  • Maryanne Diamond, Conference Chair and Vision Australia’s General Manager Advocacy and Engagement;
  • Major General the Honourable Michael Jeffery, former Governor General of Australia with the official opening.
