Welcome Messages

The Asia-Pacific Ocular Imaging Society (APOIS) is delighted to co-host the 16th Asia-Pacific Vitreo-retina Society (APVRS) Congress.  The collaboration between APOIS and APVRS is a testament to our shared commitment to advancing the field of vitreoretinal surgery and ocular imaging in the Asia-Pacific region.  By combining our collective expertise, we can push the boundaries of ocular imaging and propel our field forward.

Throughout the Congress, you can look forward to an exceptional line-up of keynote speakers and renowned experts in the field of ocular imaging.  Our programs will cover the latest developments in imaging techniques, novel applications of artificial intelligence, and integration of advanced technology into clinical practice, which will be instrumental in expanding your knowledge and enhancing your professional growth.

I invite you to mark your calendar for the APVRS Congress.  Let us embrace this remarkable opportunity to drive innovation, share knowledge, and shape the future of our field!

It is my greatest pleasure to welcome you all to the 35th Annual Scientific Meeting of the College of Ophthalmologists of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society which will be jointly organized with the 16th Congress of the Asia-Pacific Vitreo-retina Society and the 3rd Asia-Pacific Ocular Imaging Society Congress.

We have an exciting lineup of speakers and presentations that will cover the latest advances in vitreo-retina, ocular imaging, eye genetics, myopia and artificial corneas research.

It has been over four years since we joined our annual scientific meeting with other international or Asia-Pacific organizations. This meeting will provide an excellent platform for us to reconnect, share our knowledge and exchange the latest scientific developments with each other.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our speakers, sponsors and attendees for their support and participation in this meeting, I would also like to thank the organizing committee for their dedication and hard work in putting together such an excellent program.
On behalf of the College of Ophthalmologists of Hong Kong, I look froward to welcoming you all to Hong Kong and hope that you will have a productive and enjoyable meeting.
