Ocular Implants Market Analysis, Size, Growth, Share, Trend, Outlook & Forecast to 2025
The global ocular implants market size is expected to reach USD 18.4 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 6.7%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increase in the incidence of cataracts is a major factor driving the growth of the market. Cataract has been identified as a leading cause of blindness globally, and this has encouraged many industry players and government organizations to develop ocular implants. Technological advancements and increasing acceptance of vision correction coupled with the fast adoption of intraocular lenses in cataract surgeries are the factors supporting this market’s growth. For instance, a new collagen glaucoma implant that inhibits the formation of scar and is biodegradable has been developed. Eye research institutes play a vital role in the technological advancements associated with intraocular lenses. The advent of various advanced intraocular lenses and an increase in competition amongst players for the development of better lenses as well as a rise in investment in eye research institutes by government and non-government organizations are anticipated to fuel market growth. Hence, owing to the rise in the number of clinical trials pertaining to these lenses and an increase in government expenditure on R&D, the market is expected to witness lucrative growth in the intraocular segment.
