Advancing Personalized Genetic Eye Test: Highlights from APMS-HKVRS 2025
Back

 

Recently, Acuitylab Bioscience was honoured to participate in the APMS-HKVRS 2025 Joint Congress, connecting with ophthalmologists, myopia and vitreoretinal specialists and experts from Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area, and across the Asia-Pacific region. Our team received recognition for supporting the meeting and showcased our Refractive Surgery Genetic Test for corneal dystrophy – a screening that detects 5 common TGFBI mutations and helps to prevent irreversible corneal complications following LASIK or SMILE procedures.

The congress featured rich and forward-looking content, covering a broad spectrum from innovative vitreoretinal surgical techniques to the latest research developments in myopia management. Many clinicians who visited our booth affirmed the significant value of integrating precise genetic insights into surgical decision-making and lifelong patient management.

“We are committed to enhancing the safety of refractive surgery through personalized genetic diagnostics,” said Mr. Rhys Chan, Chief Executive Officer at Acuitylab Bioscience.

Acuitylab sincerely thanks every delegate who visited our booth, attended our presentations, and shared valuable insights. We look forward to deepening our collaborations to actively promote safer, patient-centred eye care solutions.
