The global intraocular lens (IOL) market size was US$ 3.8 billion in 2021. The global intraocular lens (IOL) market size is forecast to reach US$ 6.5 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.
An artificial lens consisting of acrylic, silicone, polymer, or other materials is known as an intraocular lens. These are also coated with a high-performance substance that shields the eyes from the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays. They're also approximately a third the size of a dime and are inserted during cataract surgery. These lenses help in refractive lens exchange surgery, a type of vision correction surgery. Intraocular lenses come in many shapes and sizes, including monofocal, accommodating, and toric. Monofocal IOLs are the most prevalent, whereas the other two used in rare circumstances.
Factors Influencing Market Growth
The increasing prevalence of cataract surgery, the growing adoption of advanced premium intraocular lenses, and the expansion of new intraocular lenses by prominent companies drive the global market.
The growth in the geriatric population leads to various types of diseases, such as diabetes mellitus, and the rising number of ophthalmic issues fuels the global market growth.
Adverse reimbursement positions for premium lenses and postoperative issues such as refractive errors may slow down the overall market growth.
Impact Analysis of COVID-19
COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the global intraocular lens market. Patients were unwilling to seek elective health care, such as cataracts and reconstructive surgery, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Only emergency surgeries were performed. Therefore, visits to eye clinics or hospitals decreased. According to a report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in 2021 titled Access to Eye Care During the COVID-19 Pandemic, the number of patients accessing eye care hospitals decreased by 3.5 percent. Due to the COVID-19 many ophthalmologists temporarily close their practices.
Regional Insights
North America held dominance in the market in 2021 and is forecast to remain dominant during the forecast period. As a result of the growing incidence of cataracts and other ophthalmic disorders. In addition, well-defined regulatory policies and reimbursement guidelines for cataract treatment drive the market growth in the region.
The Asia Pacific region is forecast to have lucrative growth during the forecast period. As a result of the existence of a large geriatric and diabetic population, which is prone to cataracts and other ophthalmic disorders. In addition, rising awareness about advanced treatment options and an inflow of patients from developed countries pursuing affordable healthcare fuel the market growth in the region.
