Ophthalmic Devices Market Segment Insights
The vision correction segment is projected to hold a major market share
Based on devices, the ophthalmic devices market is divided into surgical devices, diagnostic & monitoring devices, vision correction devices. The vision correction segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. Corrective lenses or vision correction devices are used to help people with common refractive problems including myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.
Low vision is the result of certain visual impairments. In 2014, nearly 2.9 million Americans were diagnosed with poor vision, according to the national eye institute. The number is likely to rise even further in the next years, reaching about 5 million during the forecast period. As a result, demand for vision correction devices is projected to rise as the number of people with impaired vision grows.
North America is expected to dominate the market
On the basis of geography, the ophthalmic devices market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. Increased disposable income, high awareness, expanding elderly population, and rising frequency of eye disorders are driving market in the North American area, particularly in the United States and Canada.
According to the US centers for disease control and prevention, there were 40.9 million contact lens wearers aged 18 and older in 2015, accounting for 16.7% of the adult population in the US. Furthermore, the American academy of ophthalmology estimates that 2.4 million eye injuries occur each year in the US alone. The rising number of eye injuries contributes to the market's expansion.
