About APARCS
Asia-Pacific Association of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons (APACRS) – a hub for the exchange of ideas and the education of young ophthalmologists. Friendship is the core of learning and education.The society evolved from the Asia-Pacific Intraocular Implant Association (APIIA) founded by Prof. Arthur Lim to reflect the dynamic developments in cataract and refractive surgery at the turn of the millennium. While the Asia-Pacific geographically represents about a quarter of the world, Asia is home to over half the world’s population. The society aims to address the continent’s cataract and refractive surgery needs, accepting the further challenge of the region’s social, economic, and cultural diversity. Meeting this challenge head on, the APACRS has developed various means to fulfill its function and guide its members along the path to enlightenment.
Website
APACRS maintains its website at www.apacrs.org. This resource is accessible to members wherever they can get online, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to linking to the digital version of EyeWorld Asia-Pacific, the website offers news, important announcements, and a convenient biometry calculator utilizing various IOL formulae developed by Prof. Barrett: the Barrett Universal II formula, the Barrett Toric Calculator, the Barrett True-K Formula, the Barrett True-K Toric Calculator, and the Barrett Rx Formula. Prof. Barrett recently introduced a new feature to the online calculator: the Barrett K Calculator allows surgeons to input information from up to three different devices and automatically provides the mathematically correct combination of the data
The website also features information on various APACRS awards, with listings of the APACRS LIM Lecturers and the APACRS Gold Medal and A.C.E. awardees, as well as programs such as the APACRS Young Physician Exchange Program and links to the Video Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, which provides additional learning opportunities via the best ophthalmic surgical videos, available in high definition for the highest level of detail.
Mobile APP
As a mobile extension of the society’s digital presence, the award-winning APACRS Mobile App, first developed in 2013 for the 26th APACRS annual meeting in Singapore, takes full advantage of modern technology to give its members a handy yet comprehensive, continuously updated alternative to printed program books. Activated in conjunction with the annual meeting, the app updates online but stores the information on the mobile device, allowing access to program information anytime, anywhere—even without an internet connection.
We took over the source-code and did the updates, fix works since 2017,2018,2019 & rebuild on 2020.
