Summary

The Vision Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) is the largest vision correction research centre in the world. It was established in July 2003 with a seven year CRC grant, taking over from the Cooperative Research Centre for Eye Research and Technology (1991-2003) which was one of the first 15 CRCs to be established. Vision CRC employs high-class national and international researchers to conduct major programs in the areas of myopia, presbyopia, vision care delivery, business growth, and professional and academic education.
