Bill C-284

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
May 29, 2024
  • This bill is called the National Strategy for Eye Care Act. It is designed to help prevent and treat eye disease in Canada by developing a national strategy. The strategy will include education for healthcare practitioners, research and data collection, information sharing between government levels, and faster review of new treatments and devices. The Minister of Health will work with representatives from the provinces, Indigenous groups, and other stakeholders to develop this strategy. The bill also designates February as "Age-Related Macular Degeneration Awareness Month". A report must be prepared within one year after the bill passes, and another report must be prepared after five years. The reports will evaluate the effectiveness of the strategy.
