Donations
Your support helps drive breakthroughs in eye research.
Thanks to people like you, Australian Vision Research can fund life-changing projects, support emerging researchers, and accelerate progress in preventing vision loss and restoring sight.

How to Donate
Why your donation matters
Our work is only made possible by the generosity of our supporters.
Every year, Australian Vision Research awards on average ten grants of approximately $50,000. Our goal is to continue to increase both the number of projects we support, and the amount we are able to provide to researchers for their projects.
For the last 70 years we have been committed to propelling eye-health breakthroughs, with the support of incredible individuals and organisations who are passionate to see eye research change lives.
Every donation, no matter the size, plays a vital role in driving forward innovative treatments, supporting emerging researchers, and helping us tackle some of the most pressing challenges in vision science. Your support empowers us to make meaningful progress — and brings hope to individuals and families affected by vision loss.
