Glaucoma is a set of eye diseases that affects optic nerve of eye, thus resulting in vision loss and bilateral, irreversible blindness. It is the second most common cause of blindness worldwide. Glaucoma surgical equipment such as filtration surgery devices, lasers, and tube shunts are used to diagnose glaucoma.
Glaucoma surgical equipment market witness significant growth due to increase in incidence of eye diseases worldwide, rise in geriatric population, changes in lifestyle, and various government initiatives towards improved healthcare infrastructure in developing countries.
Moreover, large population suffering from diabetes and obesity are prone to several eye disorders, which in turn fuels the adoption of eye laser procedures or surgeries, thus fueling the market growth. However, high costs associated with eye surgeries and low awareness among people who are affected by glaucoma restrain the market growth. Technological advancements of surgical equipment, such as micro-invasive glaucoma surgery drainage implants, and introduction of new techniques, such as advanced laser technology, namely, pattern scan laser and reduced fluence laser to treat macular edema and proliferative diabetic retinopathy in developing countries are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the market growth in the near future.
The glaucoma surgical equipment market is segmented on the basis of product, surgery, end user, and region. Based on product, the market is categorized into glaucoma drainage devices, implants & stents, glaucoma laser devices, and glaucoma systems.
