The 18th Asia-Pacific Vitreo-retina Society (APVRS) Congress was grandly held in Manila, Philippines, from December 12 to 14, 2025. As one of the key academic events in the field of fundus diseases in the Asia-Pacific region, this conference brought together world-renowned ophthalmic experts, focusing on the latest research, technological innovations, and clinical practices in the diagnosis and treatment of retinal diseases.
Founded in 2006, the APVRS's mission is to promote the development of the vitreo-retinal subspecialty in the Asia-Pacific region, provide a robust platform for integration of technology and knowledge for vitreo-retinal ophthalmologists, and disseminate knowledge and information regarding the care of vitreo-retinal diseases among the public.
The Forefront of Ophthalmology in Asia-Pacific
Spotlight on Chinese-Made Medical Devices
On this high-level international academic stage, Brisight Nord, an innovative ophthalmic medical technology brand from China, showcased its domestically produced vitrectomy probes and related vitrectomy solutions, attracting numerous international ophthalmic experts to visit their booth for exchange and discussion.
The series of vitrectomy probe products exhibited by the company have obtained Medical Device Registration Certificates from the National Medical Products Administration (Registration Certificate No.: National Device Approval 20243161676). Their intended use, safety, and effectiveness have been reviewed and found compliant with relevant standards through the registration process, and they have been applied clinically in several well-known domestic tertiary hospitals.
Focusing on Ophthalmic Surgical Equipment
Advancing Ophthalmic Medical Care
While steadily progressing with its vitrectomy consumables, Brisight Nord is actively advancing the research, development, and registration of its phacoemulsification-vitrectomy (phaco-vitrectomy) all-in-one system. Designed to integrate the dual core functions of phacoemulsification and vitrectomy, this system aims to optimize the integration of equipment and consumables made in China. It seeks to enhance operational efficiency while ensuring surgical safety, providing a more comprehensive domestic equipment solution for complex combined anterior and posterior segment surgeries. At this APVRS Congress, the technical roadmap and progress of this integrated surgical system sparked widespread interest and discussion among attending international peers.
From vitrectomy consumables to the phaco-vitrectomy all-in-one system, Brisight Nord is dedicated to the research, development, and production of ophthalmic surgical equipment and consumables. It strictly adheres to relevant national standards and industry norms, striving to provide clinicians with compliant and qualified diversified product options to support the development of ophthalmic medical services.
