In today’s evolving urban landscape, Avenue K continues to be a vibrant hub where individuals of all backgrounds, interests, and abilities are welcomed and empowered—living out the mall’s tagline: “Make Friends, Create Trends.”
Celebrating Neurodiversity with Oasis Place
In conjunction with Autism Awareness Day, Avenue K collaborated with Oasis Place—Malaysia’s largest multidisciplinary intervention centre—to host Our Heart: Colours of Neurodiversity on 12 April 2025. The event explored themes of neurodiversity, accessibility, mental health, and assistive technology through interactive workshops, expert panels, and stories from lived experiences. The initiative reaffirmed Avenue K’s commitment to fostering an inclusive society where all individuals are seen, heard, and supported.
Feline Friendships at Avenue Katz Adoption Fiesta
In an effort to promote kindness to animals and advocate for responsible pet ownership, Avenue K teamed up with Persatuan Haiwan Malaysia to organise Avenue Katz Adoption Fiesta from 14-20 April 2025, that brought together animal lovers, local shelters, and adorable feline companions in search of forever homes. A total of 43 cats were adopted during the event. Supported by key government bodies including the Department of Veterinary Services Malaysia (DVS), the event also featured educational booths and activities that raised public awareness about animal welfare and pet care. Shoppers contributed to animal-related causes, reinforcing the community’s role in animal welfare and Avenue K’s ongoing mission of compassion and meaningful impact.
Empowering Local Talent Through Music

These efforts highlight Avenue K’s dedication to nurturing creative expression and empowering homegrown talent.
Igniting Passion for Literacy and Learning
Avenue K is home to a permanent Reading Corner curated by Books For A Better World (BFBW)—a cosy, self-service book store where visitors of all ages can browse, enjoy and purchase books at their own pace. This ongoing collaboration fosters a culture of literacy, discovery, and creativity.

In partnership with Fitness First, the mall has hosted a variety of wellness activities—from the adrenaline-fuelled Ice Warrior Challenge and high-intensity HYROX functional training, to calming yoga sessions and rhythm-packed Body Jam and Zumba workouts. These initiatives not only promote physical health, but also foster a fun, social environment that encourages everyone to get moving.
Looking ahead, Avenue K will celebrate Global Wellness Day on 14 June 2025, with the main event taking place at Level 4, the mall’s rooftop event space.

From PolyU Research to Geneva Global Debut: GOOD Vision oka³y! ™ Redefines Precision in Freeform Orthokeratology
Beyond Traditional Toric Lenses: The Future of Freeform Orthokeratology
With myopia expected to affect 50% of the world’s population by 2050, demand for effective management is high. While Ortho-K is a highly effective strategy, traditional symmetric and spherical/ toric designs often underestimate corneal shape complexity, causing lens decentration and poor visual outcomes.
The oka³y!™ freeform technology, incorporating the company’s proprietary FAST-360 and CORe Technology, surpasses traditional lens design. AI-based FAST-360 reconstructs missing corneal data for faster scans, while CORe ensures precise alignment with the visual axis, leading to 3.1 times greater stability.
Precision Myopia Correction and Control for High Astigmatism and Asymmetric Corneas
For optometrists and clinic owners, oka³y!™’s key benefit is improving workflow by automating complex mathematics, cutting chair time by 64%. This boosts myopia management capacity without extra staff or lengthy training. “As a registered optometrist in Hong Kong and a researcher in one of the world’s leading optometric institutes, I witnessed a growing gap between the number of patients seeking Ortho-K and the limited range of conventional products available to treat them,” says Dr. Kin Ho Chan, Ken, the lead inventor of oka³y!™. “By focusing on the ‘3A’: AI-guided, Astigmatism, and Asymmetry, and working alongside The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (Poly U), we have developed a design that not only delivers superior vision but also enhances safety by reducing corneal staining. We are turning a frustrating, manual trial-and-error process into a predictable one-click adjustment.”
From Niche Specialty to Global Enterprise: Scaling the Future of Eye Care
As myopia rates reach epidemic levels, GOOD Vision partners with PolyU, harnessing its research strengths and support from its startup ecosystem PolyVentures, to redefine primary eye care by transforming a niche specialty into a scalable global enterprise. By replacing manual OK lens design with oka³y!™, the company has created a technology bridging clinical complexity and scalability. This transition enables practitioners to manage myopia, high astigmatism, and asymmetrical cases precisely, removing barriers to modern refractive error management.
“By embedding and automating the complex mathematics of lens design, we provide clinicians with the tools to treat ‘difficult’ patients who were previously considered unsuitable for Ortho-K,” added Professor Chea-su Kee, Founder of GOOD Vision. “This is about elevating the global standard of care and ensuring that precision myopia management is accessible to the next generation on a global scale.”
Experience the Future of Myopia Control
GOOD Vision invites investors, distributors, and practitioners to a live demonstration of the oka³y!™ at the International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva:
- Location: PolyU Delegation Booth, Hall 2, Palexpo, CP 112, Route François-Peyrot 30, 1218 Le Grand-Saconnex, Geneva, Switzerland
- Dates: 11–15 March 2026
