The recently concluded 16th annual Asia-Pacific Vitreo-retina Society (APVRS) Congress, held in Hong Kong from December 8-10, marked a significant achievement for Arctic Vision.
As a key gathering for experts in Ophthalmology worldwide, APVRS attracted over 2,100 delegates from 42 countries, providing an ideal platform for Arctic Vision to engage with global leaders in ophthalmology and stay abreast of cutting-edge technology.
Our revolutionary dry eye neurostimulation device, iTEAR®, the first and only FDA-cleared non-invasive technology to relieve dry eyes, captivated attendees with its drug-free approach, easy-to-use design, and revolutionary mechanism to stimulate lacrimal glands, meibomian glands, and goblet cells simultaneously for natural tears. After a successful year in the Hong Kong market, iTEAR® continues to earn acclaim from patients and physicians. Meanwhile, we also presented our innovative strength as a unicorn in the ophthalmic market, and comprehensive product ecosystem for the needs of patients and consumers throughout their full-age life cycle in our exhibition.

Beyond that, collaborating with Dr. Raymond Wong, an esteemed ophthalmologist at C-MER Eye Centre and APVRS council member, we presented a poster on the ARVN001 PEACHTREE post-hoc analysis, titled "Clinical Outcomes in Managing Macular Edema in Patients with Non-infectious Uveitis Treated with Suprachoroidal Injections of Triamcinolone Acetonide Suspension: A Post-hoc Analysis of a Phase III Study." The poster earned Dr. Wong the Best Poster Award, a proud moment for the entire Arctic Vision team!
Arctic Vision and Dr. Raymond WONG's contribution was awarded Best Poster Awar
This post-hoc analysis of the Phase III clinical trial aimed to evaluate whether baseline disease characteristics impact the efficacy of suprachoroidal injections of triamcinolone acetonide in treating macular edema associated with non-infectious uveitis. Results demonstrated significant improvements from baseline in BCVA and CST in all groups at all visits, with trends that earlier diagnosis and shorter disease duration may lead to better improvements, suggesting earlier treatment upon diagnosis.

Attending APVRS in person after the pandemic was a fantastic opportunity for the Arctic Vision team. We're thrilled with the successful results and look forward to reuniting next year for more innovative discussions.
