Dear Esteemed Colleagues and Friends,
A very warm welcome to the 42nd Asia-Pacific Academy of Ophthalmology (APAO) Congress, to be held from March 18–21, 2027, at the state-of-the-art Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre.
Under the theme “The Future of Ophthalmology”, this year’s meeting will place special emphasis on artificial intelligence (AI) in ophthalmology. We will delve not only into the latest clinical advances but also into the revolutionary global technologies and AI-enabled applications that are bringing ophthalmology to the forefront of medical science.
Our comprehensive program has been meticulously designed to engage participants with different expertise – from ophthalmologists to biomedical engineers, basic scientists, imaging specialists, data scientists, and AI researchers. We have forged partnerships with leading global AI, technology, pharmaceutical, and imaging companies, both within and beyond our field, ensuring you experience the most current developments shaping our specialty’s future.
Home to the Asia-Pacific headquarters of multiple global tech giants, Singapore has been proudly named the top tech innovation hub outside of Silicon Valley. Here, delegates will gain exposure to world-renowned technology developers for ophthalmology-use cases and explore opportunities for collaboration. We are honored to join hands with our distinguished co-hosts, the Singapore Society of Ophthalmology and the College of Ophthalmologists, Academy of Medicine, Singapore, in bringing you this landmark event.
Beyond the academic program, we sincerely invite you to experience the Lion City, which will impress you with modern architecture blended with lush greenery, multicultural heritage, world-class infrastructure, and amazing food.
We look forward to seeing you all in Singapore!
