The Busselton Study is well known as a major population health study that has been ongoing since the 1960s.
In 2010, the Busselton Population Medical Research Foundation started a study to explore why some people are able to remain healthy and active throughout their senior years, whilst others suffer ongoing illness and infirmity – the Busselton Healthy Ageing Study. There is an eye component within this study, for which the Lions Eye Institute through Professor David Mackey is providing financial and equipment support.
