The global fundus cameras market size is expected to reach USD 535.0 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.4% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising geriatric population and growing occurrences of chronic disorders such as diabetes and hypertension further increase the incidence of retinal disorders.
For instance, according to the WHO 2016 report, globally, in 2014, 422.0 million people had diabetes. Additionally, increasing non-communicable diseases such as AMD, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma is contributing to the growing blind population globally. Therefore, to control the impact of these eye diseases, the fundus camera is widely used for diagnosis purposes. Availability of different types of fundus cameras such as hybrid, portable, handheld, and standalone is expected to propel the market growth during the forecast period.
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP), and Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) are major and increasing causes of retinal blindness. An increase in life expectancy has led to a rise in the geriatric population, which would further continue to rise in the future. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, international database, the global geriatric population was nearly 617.1 million in 2015 and is anticipated to reach 998.7 by 2030. This, in turn, is expected to drive the overall market growth during the forecast period.
In addition, supportive government regulations for fundus cameras are expected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, regulatory agencies in the U.S. and Japan stated that the cameras should be replaced every 4 years. This initiative by the agencies will help in implementing new advancements in fundus photography every 4 years, thereby, enhancing the diagnosis of eye diseases. However, the presence of other advanced technologies such as OCT for the diagnosis of eye problems is expected to hinder the adoption of fundus cameras and may impact the overall market growth during the forecast period.
