The global Ophthalmic Lasers market size is expected to be worth around US$ 11.6 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Vision Research Reports.
The global Ophthalmic Lasers market size was valued at US$ 11.0 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 15.9% during forecast period 2021 to 2030.
Growth Factors
Ophthalmic disorders are rising significantly on a global level. This rise in the prevalence rate has led to high growth of ophthalmic lasers market.
According to American Academy of Ophthalmology 2014 statistics, nearly 4.2 million people in the U.S. are visually impaired. Huge number of people suffering from visual impairment are likely to heighten the demand for ophthalmic lasers in the coming years.
Vision loss is a serious problem among people suffering from glaucoma, cataract, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and diabetic retinopathy. This commonly occurs among the geriatric population. American Academy of Ophthalmology stated that, around 1.3 million U.S. population are blind. Hence, in order to minimize such huge rate of vision loss, there is a high need for the application of ophthalmic laser technology.
Geriatric population are the primary target for the market. Majority of the chronic ophthalmic disorders, for instance, cataract and AMD occur among this group of population. However, refractive errors are also very common among the young people. Thus, growing number of victims of chronic eye diseases has led to an expected growth of the market.
Report Highlights
Among the product segment, femtosecond lasers held the largest revenue share in 2020. This is due to the rising number of people affected by refractive errors. These devices are also increasingly used during cataract surgeries. Thus, due to the aforementioned factors, this product segment generated huge revenue in the market.
Growing technological advancements in the field of femtosecond lasers for cataract and refractive error surgeries have led to huge development of these products. Thus, newer technologies are motivating this segment to contribute to the immense market share.
Excimer lasers are also being highly adopted by healthcare facilities for the treatment of refractive errors. For instance, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG introduced MEL 80 Excimer for refractive laser surgery. This device in combination with femtosecond laser provides effective solutions pertaining to refractive error corrections.
SLT and YAG lasers are also expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. These products are effectively used for the treatment of glaucoma, retina, and corneal surgery. Ellex Medical Lasers Limited, one of the leaders in the ophthalmic lasers industry, constitutes a broad portfolio of SLT and YAG for the treatment of such eye disorders.
On the basis of application, refractive error corrections dominated the ophthalmic lasers market in 2016 owing to the rising prevalence of refractive errors among both children and adult population. Moreover, increase in the application of femtosecond lasers in refractive error surgeries also supported the growth of the segment.
Cataract removal segment is expected to exhibit the fastest growth over the forecast period due to the growing number of cataract removal surgeries taking place across the globe. Cataract is a common problem among the geriatric population and might lead to blindness, if not given immediate medical attention.
Glaucoma is another important application segment, which is expected to generate significant demand for some ophthalmic laser types such as SLT and YAG. Lumenis launched a product, Smart Selecta Duet, which involves a combination of both of these laser technologies and is used for glaucoma treatment.
Retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and AMD are a common concern for the geriatric population. The key players are focusing on the extensive production of ophthalmic products for the treatment of such kind of disorders. For instance, Topcon Corporation manufactured PASCAL Synthesis System for the treatment of patients with diabetic retinopathy and AMD.
On the basis of end-use, hospitals contributed towards the largest market share in 2020 due to the wide usage of ophthalmic lasers in hospital settings. Moreover, the rising number of hospitals in emerging countries is further supporting the growth of this segment.
Ambulatory surgical centers are anticipated to grow at a significant growth over the forecast period. This is due to the growing number of government initiatives undertaken in order to raise the awareness levels for ambulatory surgical centers in developing countries.
Ophthalmic clinics are also projected to show growth over the forecast period due to increase in a number of specialty clinics for the treatment of chronic diseases. However, lack of availability of trained professionals for dealing with the complexities involved in the usage of ophthalmic lasers is expected to impede the market growth.
North America dominated the market owing to rising healthcare expenditure in the U.S. and the development of sophisticated healthcare infrastructure in the country. Moreover, rising prevalence of ophthalmic disorders is expected to support the high demand for these products.
Europe also contributed towards significant shares in 2020 owing to the increasing geriatric population base in this region. Ophthalmic disorders are highly prevalent among this group of the population. As a result of these factors, Europe is expected to drive the market demand for the devices during the study period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to show lucrative growth over the forecast period. This is due to the rising prevalence of cataract removal surgeries in the developing countries such as India. In addition, increasing awareness levels for the prevention of blindness is also motivating the high growth of the market.
