The global reading glasses market has witnessed significant growth in the last few years owing to the rapid increase in the aging population worldwide and rising prevalence of presbyopia. Presbyopia is the progressive inability of the eyes to focus on nearby objects with age, leading to blurred vision. As per 2024 statistics by the WHO, over a billion people suffer from near-vision impairment globally and approximately 170 million cannot undertake their near work responsibilities clearly without glasses. Furthermore, lifestyle changes, rising digital screen usage, and increased strain on eyes have accelerated the onset of presbyopia at an earlier stage among young adults. All these factors have triggered the demand for reading glasses for clear near vision. Advancements in lens technology including anti-reflective, anti-scratch, and blue light filtering coating have also bolstered the adoption of reading glasses.
Market Dynamics:
The global reading glasses market is primarily driven by the growing geriatric population globally. As per Older people tend to develop presbyopia at a higher rate which fuels the sales of reading glasses. However, high adoption of vision correction surgeries such as consumers shifting towards daily disposable contact lenses are restraining the market growth. Meanwhile, increasing innovation in frames and lens material and rising awareness about long-term vision care through social media marketing offers lucrative opportunities. For instance, introduction of lightweight titanium and memory metal frames enhances the comfort of reading glasses.
