Rising Prevalence of Ocular Disorders to Augment Market Growth
The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that approximately 1.7 million people are affected by presbyopia and around 153 million people reside with uncorrected refractive errors around the world. A rising prevalence of presbyopia worldwide is one of the main factors propeling the contact lenses market growth in the coming years. Also, many people are affected by ocular disorders, which in turn, is expected to boost growth of the market.
Spherical Segment to Dominate the Market Backed by High Prescriptions
In terms of design, the market is segregated into spherical, multifocal, and toric. Out of these, the spherical segment had generated 65.8% contact lenses market share in 2018 and was in the leading position. It occurred because these lenses are highly recommended by doctors for correcting ocular disorders. The toric segment, on the other hand, is anticipated to showcase considerable growth owing to its possession of numerous advantages, such as greater lens-to-lens reproducibility, easier fitting protocol, and better stabilization design. Lastly, the multifocal segment would expand at faster pace in the near future due to growing awareness and increasing new product launches.
