Vision China Congress in Tianjin from 28th to 31st May 2026

Vision China 2026 is currently taking place in Tianjin, China (May 2026), serving as one of the largest ophthalmology congresses in the country with over 10,000 participants. A major highlight of the conference is its specialized focus on keratoconus treatments and cutting-edge advanced eye technologies. [1, 2, 3]

Key Keratoconus & Vision Highlights from the Congress

• Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL) Integration: The congress features a dedicated spin-off program from the Zurich CXL Experts Meeting, marking its 8th appearance at this event to showcase the latest global consensus on stabilizing keratoconus. [1, 2]
• Advanced Medical Solutions: Renowned institutions like the ELZA Institute and EMAGine AG are prominently featured, presenting cutting-edge corneal cross-linking techniques and technologies (such as ELZA-PACE) designed to improve vision and arrest the progression of corneal ectasia. [1, 2]
• Tianjin Clinical Research Hub: Locally, the Tianjin Eye Hospital is actively recruiting and presenting findings on novel optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based indexes to diagnose subclinical keratoconus early, matching the global research focus displayed at the event. [1]

There are two major events sharing similar names in China this year:

1. Ophthalmology Congress: The medical conference in Tianjin focused on vision correction, keratoconus, and corneal health.
2. Machine Vision Exhibition: A separate industrial automation and AI robotics expo called Vision China 2026 that took place in Shanghai earlier this year (March 25–27, 2026). [1, 2, 3]
