Description

The Indigenous Eye Health Unit (IEHU) was established by Melbourne Laureate Professor Hugh Taylor AC in 2008 with the specific and singular goal to achieve eye health and eye care equity for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people (hereafter respectively referred to as Indigenous Australians). IEHU is a small translational research group that aims to close the gap for vision through world-leading research, policy formation, advocacy and implementation.
