The market is driven by technological advancements, increasing eye health awareness, and a growing demand for minimally invasive vision correction solutions.
Global Contact and Intraocular Lenses Market Synopsis
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the Contact and Intraocular Lenses Market. The pandemic caused disruptions in the supply chain, affecting the production and distribution of contact and intraocular lenses. Restrictions on transportation and manufacturing slowed down the availability of these products. With more people working from home and social distancing, the use of contact lenses decreased as people shifted to wearing glasses for convenience and comfort. As healthcare facilities adapted to the new normal with safety protocols, elective procedures like cataract surgeries resumed, leading to a recovery in the demand for intraocular lenses. The pandemic heightened awareness of health and hygiene, prompting some consumers to prioritize regular eye check-ups and consider vision correction options, including contact and intraocular lenses. With heightened hygiene awareness, there was a shift towards daily disposable contact lenses, as they are considered more hygienic compared to reusable lenses. Continued emphasis on hygiene and safety may lead to sustained demand for products perceived as safer and more convenient.
Contact and Intraocular Lenses Market Dynamics
The major factors that have impacted the growth of Contact and Intraocular Lenses Market are as follows:
Drivers:
Ø Advancements in Lens Technology
Developments in lens materials, such as silicone hydrogel, enhance oxygen permeability and comfort, encouraging more users to opt for contact lenses. The availability of multifocal and toric lenses, which offer solutions for presbyopia and astigmatism, expands the market by catering to diverse vision correction needs. Lenses with blue light filtering capabilities cater to digital device users, addressing concerns about digital eye strain. Growing awareness of the importance of regular eye examinations contributes to early diagnosis and treatment of vision issues, supporting lens market growth. Post-pandemic emphasis on hygiene and safety continues to influence consumer preferences for safer and more convenient lens options, such as daily disposables.
Restraint:
- Perception of High Cost of Advanced Lenses and Economic Factors
Advanced lens technologies, such as multifocal and toric lenses, often come with a higher price tag, making them less accessible to cost-sensitive consumers. Many vision insurance plans do not fully cover the cost of contact and intraocular lenses, especially for premium options, which can deter potential buyers. Economic uncertainties and downturns can lead to reduced consumer spending on non-essential healthcare products, impacting lens sales. Price-sensitive consumers in emerging markets may prioritize basic vision correction solutions over advanced, higher-cost options.
Opportunity:
⮚ Advancements in Surgical Techniques
Innovations in surgical techniques, such as femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery, can enhance the efficacy and safety of intraocular lens implantation, driving demand. Offering customizable intraocular lenses that cater to individual patient needs can create opportunities in the premium segment of the market. Expanding the range of daily disposable lenses, which are perceived as more hygienic, can meet increasing consumer demand for convenience and safety. Developing environmentally friendly and biodegradable contact lenses can address environmental concerns and appeal to eco-conscious consumers.
Contact and Intraocular Lenses Market Segment Overview
By Product Type
Based on Product Type, the market is segmented based on Spherical Contact Lenses, Toric Contact Lenses, Multifocal Contact Lenses, Cosmetic and Lifestyle Oriented Lenses, Multifocal IOLS and Others. The toric intraocular lens segment dominant the market. Astigmatism causes myopia, hypermetropia, or both in patients. Toric intraocular lenses are made particularly for such people. Furthermore, toric IOLs are meant to minimize the necessity for incision implants, which were previously necessary during astigmatism surgical operations, enhancing their popularity among people.
By Material
Based on Material, the market segment has been divided into Silicone Hydrogel Soft Contact Lens, Methacrylate Hydrogel Soft Contact Lens, Hydrophobic Acrylic IOLS, Hydrophilic Acrylic IOLS, Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) IOLS and Others. Because of its high refractive index, low water content, and preference, the hydrophobic segment dominant the market. The products made of foldable material are easier to insert and can be used more frequently in cataract surgery. IntechOpen published a research article that stated that hydrophobic acrylic products were the most popular intraocular lenses.
By End User
Based on End User, the market segment has been divided into Hospitals, Ophthalmic Clinics and Others. The hospital segment was the dominant segment in the market. This is due to the large number of vision and cataract surgeries performed in hospitals. Individual ophthalmic clinics are increasing in developing countries. These clinics do not have any affiliation with hospitals. The competition between service providers will increase due to the rise in eye care professionals and clinics.
