The global advanced ophthalmology technology market size is expected to reach USD 12.89 billion in 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2024 to 2030. Frequent introduction of advanced ophthalmology technologies incorporated in various ophthalmic devices such as optical coherence tomography scanner, specular microscopes, excimer lasers, and femtosecond lasers is expected to drive the overall market growth.
Rising geriatric population is contributing toward the growing prevalence of age-related ophthalmic disorders such as cataract, diabetic retinopathy, and myopia. This growing prevalence of ophthalmic disorders is boosting the adoption of ophthalmic treatments, and thus, advanced ophthalmic devices. Major players in the market are focusing on adopting advanced technologies such as SWEPT Source OCT, Partial coherence interferometry (PCI), and Polatest technology. These technologies will help in developing effective ophthalmic devices for efficient diagnosis and treatment of ophthalmic disorders.
Ophthalmic ultrasound imaging systems are one of the most preferred advanced ophthalmic diagnostic device and is expected to grow at a significant pace. The optical biometry systems segment is also expected to grow at steady rate during the forecast period in comparison to the ophthalmic ultrasound imaging systems segment. This is because optical biometry provides more accurate data in comparison to ultrasound as the refinements in its technology help in measuring lens thickness, anterior chamber depth, and other axial length parameters.
Surgical devices held the largest share among advanced ophthalmic therapeutic devices in 2018. This is because of the increasing number of ophthalmic surgeries. Major ophthalmic surgical devices are microkeratome and Vitreo retinal surgery devices. Microkeratome is largely preferred for LASIK and ALK surgery. Excimer lasers are also preferred as one of the advanced ophthalmic lasers because these lasers produce very small and precise spots at a very low wavelength.
