Dear Friends and Colleagues

It is our great pleasure to invite you to attend the 17th APVRS Congress to be held in Singapore from 22 – 24 November 2024.

We are delighted that Singapore has the opportunity to host this premiere ophthalmic event in the region.  Themed ”Transforming Retinal Disease Management with Technology”, the meeting gathers a distinguished international faculty of top specialists in vitreo-retina to share their expertise and experience. The scientific program will focus on exciting areas such as novel surgical innovations and therapies, and latest advances in imaging and research.

One of the highlights of the annual APVRS congress has always been the opportunity to catch up with old friends and make new ones. I look forward to welcoming you to Singapore. Don’t forget to find time to enjoy our city and experience the multi-cultural sights and tantalising local cuisines.

See you in Singapore in November 2024.
