Birdshot Day 2024
BUSNA's first official Birdshot Day will be held April 6, 2024 at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia! Stay tuned for details. More info coming soon!
Rare Disease Day
Rare Disease Day is a day to acknowledge diseases like Birdshot Uveitis. Birdshot Uveitis is an “orphan disease” that affects a small percentage of the population. In some part of the world, the term orphan disease describes a rare disease whose rarity results in little or no funding or no funding for research for treatments. Celebrate #rarediseaseday by helping fund research. Press the Donate Now button and make a difference.
In commemorating Rare Disease Day 2024 on February 29th, the rarest day of the year, Birdshot Uveitis Society of North America will be featuring diagnosis stories of birdies throughout the month. Read Show Your Stripes on Rare Disease Day to learn more about our rare disease, birdshot uveitis.
Make sure to check our blog regularly for featured stories about Birdshot patients.
