Support for Parents
YUP Parents was created to give the caregivers of young children with glaucoma their own online support forum. YUP Parents helps family members cope with the daily challenges of raising a child with glaucoma by providing an outlet where they can discuss surgeries and treatments, doctors, and other issues and experiences specific to childhood glaucomas. Email yup_parents-subscribe@yahoogroups.com to join!
Support Groups
YUP stands for “Young and Under Pressure”. This online support community makes it possible for teens and young adults under 30 with glaucoma to communicate with their peers, share their stories and experiences, and offer support through online discussions. Email yup-subscribe@yahoogroups.com to join!
