Market Dynamics - Market Drivers

Increasing Geriatric Population

• One of the significant changes demographically is the growing geriatric population, which has profound effects on various sectors, especially healthcare. With improved medical care and living standards increasingly noted, life expectancy has grown, and now the number of elderly people is rapidly increasing worldwide. Improvement in healthcare technologies, nutrition, and living style that gave a better option of livelihood resulted in people living as well as living longer compared to their previous generation counterparts. The population is geriatric and represents complex healthcare needs predominantly because of high comorbid prevalence rates of chronic diseases with significant burden, including but not limited to cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, and senile disorders such as osteoporosis and dementia. The fast-increasing elderly population also puts more pressure on healthcare systems to provide better and more diversified care. Therefore, the demand for both medical care and customized treatments and health innovations fitting the peculiarities of older patients is growing. It is evident that changes in demography have been a stimulus for the need to adapt the health infrastructure, expand preventive care, and invest in research.

Increased Government Initiatives to Control Visual Impairment

• More governmental activity to control visual impairments is a reflection of the increasing understanding of the critical needs involved in taking responsibility for responding to eye health and management on a larger scale. Governments of different countries all over the world adopt different strategies to fight visual impairment with a combination of various public programs and health campaigns, holding research, and policy improvements. This goes along with different eye disease research funding, subsidization, or free eye examinations, and funding for the invention and distribution of ophthalmic technologies. Further, eye care is integrated into primary health care services not only for early case identification of visual impairment but also for treatment. Public education campaigns should include, as widely as possible, the population's awareness of the regularity of eye check-ups and methods for prevention in reducing the problem of vision. Therefore, these efforts are a priority for governments, which should aim to improve not only quality of life for the individuals but also provide for decreased productivity and increased health care costs by attempts to reduce the broader societal and economic impacts of vision loss. The steps are proactive that just reflect commitment in better eye health and reduction of impact of visual impairment through comprehensive and coordinated approach.

Market Opportunity

Low Adoption of Phacoemulsification Devices and Premium IOLs in Emerging Markets

• Low adoption of phacoemulsification devices and premium IOLs in emerging markets is a significant challenge to access and quality in cataract treatment within these regions. Whereas phacoemulsification is a more current approach to surgical cataract therapy using ultrasound to emulsify and aspirate the opaque lens, and premium IOLs are differentiated by advanced features such as multimodality and extended depth of focus, their diffusion in emerging markets is not as wide as in developed countries. Several factors can explain the low diffusion in these countries: high costs related to these technologies, limited availability of properly trained healthcare professionals, inadequate infrastructures. Furthermore, strained healthcare budgets and strong economic constraints in the developing countries and emerging markets boost volumes of less expensive, traditional surgical procedures, as well as basic IOLs. For that reason, low diffusion of such advanced technologies impinges not only on the quality of cataract surgery but also the possible benefits to patients, like less reliance on corrective eyewear and improvement of visual outcomes. Such barriers can only be addressed by initiatives increasing affordability, training, and healthcare infrastructure to then significantly expand access to advanced cataract care in emerging markets and improve overall eye health.

Market Restraining Factors

High Cost and Risk Associated with Eye Surgeries

• The high cost and associated risk of eye surgeries seriously impede accessibility to and advancement in ophthalmic care. In detail, most of the complex surgeries, such as retinal, refractive, and advanced cataract surgeries, are very expensive since they need special equipment, skilled surgical teams, and post-operative care. Advanced technologies and premium intraocular lenses come at extra costs, thereby raising the financial burden for patients in lower socioeconomic settings, hence relatively inaccessible. Inherent in eye surgeries are risks associated with procedures that may include infection, loss of vision, or some adverse reactions to the anaesthesia administered, hence adding another worry dimension for the patients and healthcare providers. This implies that risks, therefore, need careful preoperative assessment, meticulous surgical techniques, and rigorous postoperative monitoring. Coupled with the potential risks, high costs call for continuous development of surgical techniques with cost-effective solutions and robust patient education to lead to increased safety, accessibility, and affordability of ophthalmic care.
