MACS (Microphthalmia, Anophthalmia and Coloboma Support)

MACS is the UK’s only charity dedicated to supporting individuals born with

• Microphthalmia (small, underdeveloped eyes)
• Anophthalmia (no eyes) and
• Coloboma (cleft in the eye structure)

Our vision is for people with MACS conditions and their families to thrive and lead fulfilling lives. We empower 70 Nottinghamshire members by fostering a connected community. We organise regional and local social events that connect families to create peer support networks which alleviate the isolation caused by these rare conditions. With a cost of £128 per year, per member, we ensure accessible services, promoting well-being, strengthening community bonds and sharing experiences.
