Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices Market Size To Expand at a Notable CAGR Of 11.60% During 2023 - 2030

Pune, India, March, 2022/MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future has published a half-cooked research report on the Global Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices Market

Overview:

Ophthalmic viscoelastic devices are fundamental tools that are used in cataract surgery. They are designed to protect and coat delicate intraocular tissues and improve visualization.

The Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices Market is expected to reach USD 1.29 Billion by 2030 at 11.60% CAGR during the forecast period 2023 -2030.

A substantial rise in the number of ophthalmic surgeries is a key factor influencing the growth of the global ophthalmic viscoelastic devices market. An increasing number of eye disorders require surgery which generates high demand for OVDs. As per a report published by Novartis healthcare in 2015, almost 4 Mn cataract surgeries are performed in the US every year.  OVDs make phacoemulsification easier and safer and thus have become standard in ophthalmic surgeries. OVDs are used separately or in a combination of both cohesive and dispersive. High prevalence of visual impairment and expanding healthcare expenditure is adding fuel to the growth of the market. Growing geriatric population and increase in the number of diabetic patients have also contributed significantly to the market growth.

Advancement in material science and development of better OVDs have demonstrated a high success rate in ophthalmic surgeries. In addition, improving reimbursement scenario and spreading awareness is expected to foster the growth of the market over the forecast period.

On the other hand, among factors which can affect the market growth negatively include complications associated with the removal of OVDs. OVDs, especially the dispersive ones can be hard to remove since they tend to spread out and coat the ocular structures. OVDs are subject to stringent FDA clinical evidence and testing requirements which are becoming tightened gradually. Lack of general awareness among people regarding eye disorders is also likely to constrain market growth over the forecast period.
