On behalf of the College of Ophthalmologists of Hong Kong (COHK), it is my immense pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all of you to the 36th Annual Scientific Meeting/ Hong Kong Ophthalmological Symposium held in conjunction with the Asian Neuro-Ophthalmology Society (ASNOS) and the Asia Pacific Society of Ocular Oncology and Pathology ( APSOOP ) on 6-8 December 2024 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center. This conjoint meeting is unique. We have the privilege to bring many world-renowned experts from different parts of the world in the field of Neuro-Ophthalmology , Ocular Oncology and Pathology to come and share their expertise and novel treatment modalities. Although these subspecialties and topics are not as widely discussed, it is all the more important for us to recognize their significance and vital roles in our daily practice. We can also acknowledge the professionals who dedicate their time and efforts in the advancement of these fields for improved diagnosis, more effective treatment and hence better patient care. ASNOS is held every 2 years in different Asian cities and we are honored that Hong Kong was chosen to be the host in 2024. APSOOP is a member society of Asia Pacific Academy of Ophthalmology and holds its conference in the region.

This year also marks the 30th anniversary of the COHK and the 70th anniversary of the Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society. A series of celebratory activities are organized throughout the year. To end on a high note, nothing better than having an anniversary symposium in our Annual Scientific Meeting with two regional congresses namely ASNOS and APSOOP as the grand finale of the anniversary celebration. We are thrilled to be able to celebrate our anniversary with friends from other parts of the world.

This meeting serves as an invaluable platform for members to share new ideas and knowledge with experts from other regions. Beyond the scientific sessions, it is an excellent opportunity for networking and forging lasting friendships. It is a time where we can reconnect with our old friends and make new acquaintances.

To all speakers, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your contributions and your commitment in advancing our knowledge.

Lastly, I would like to express my gratitude to the organizing committee for working tirelessly to ensure the success of this meeting and our sponsors for their support to make this meeting possible.

Dear Friends and colleagues,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM)/ the Hong Kong Ophthalmological Symposium 2024 held in conjunction with the Asia Neuro-Ophthalmology Society Congress (ASNOS) and Asia Pacific Society of Ocular Oncology and Pathology (APSOOP) at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Hong Kong, China, on December 6-8, 2024.

Every year the ASM/ Hong Kong Ophthalmological Symposium is one of the most exciting events co-organised by the College of Ophthalmologist of Hong Kong (COHK) and Hong Kong Ophthalmological Society (HKOS). This is not only an excellent platform for trainees, experts, and scientists from local and overseas institutes to share their expertise, research, and innovations in different disciplines of Ophthalmology, but also a good chance to reunite old friends and making new collaborations. 

This year's ASM is a special occasion as it marks the first time it will be held in conjunction with the ASNOS and APSOOP. While it is often said that "the eye is the window to the soul," it should also be recognized as "the window to the brain and our body." Guided by the leadership of Professor Carmen Chan, the ASNOS 2024 Congress President, and Professor Hunter Yuen, President of APSOOP, this congress presents a unique opportunity for ophthalmologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, oncologists, pathologists, and scientists to collaborate and explore the intricate neuro-ophthalmic and systemic connections. We look forward to seeing you in the congress to learn, share and enjoy the nice weather, good food and beautiful views of our Victoria Harbour.

With best regards,

Dr Thomas Chiu

Chairman, Annual Scientific Meeting/Hong Kong Ophthalmological Symposium 2024

Dear friends and colleagues,

Neuro-ophthalmology is an increasingly recognized and vital subspecialty of both ophthalmology and neurology, given the expanding range of therapeutic options available for neuro-ophthalmic disorders. Established in 2002, ASNOS aims to promote education, research, and the practice of neuro-ophthalmology in the Asia region, paralleling the efforts of other regional societies like the North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society (NANOS) and the European Neuro-Ophthalmology Society (EUNOS). The ASNOS Congress takes place every 2 years, and the 12th ASNOS Congress in 2024 promises to be a remarkable event.

Dr. Thomas Chiu, ASMHK Chairman, and I eagerly look forward to welcoming neuro-ophthalmologists, ophthalmologists, neurologists, and neurosurgeons not only from Hong Kong and our neighbouring Asian countries but also from around the world. This Congress presents a fantastic opportunity to share the latest advancements in clinical practice and research within the field of neuro-ophthalmology.

We hope to see you in Hong Kong in December 2024!

 

With warm regards
