APACRS Certified Educator (A.C.E) Award

Skills transfer becomes progressively more crucial to providing quality eye care as the fields of cataract and refractive surgery continue to advance. The APACRS Certified Educator (A.C.E.) program was launched in 2002 to help ophthalmic surgeons in the region keep pace with developments and to motivate them to play a more active role in disseminating the latest advances and techniques to their colleagues. APACRS works in partnership with industry players to identify and award ophthalmologists for their significant contributions to ophthalmic development in the Asia-Pacific region.
