Betaxolol is a racemic mixture and beta-adrenergic receptor inhibitor used to treat patients with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It was first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1989, as an oral tablet. Betaxolol is used either alone or in combination with other medicines to lower down the pressure within the heart or eye. In the heart, Betaxolol decreases the cardiac contractility and rate selectively by actively binding and blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors.

Furthermore, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the prevalence of glaucoma is high in Africa and Latin America. Patients who fail to respond to medications, undergo trabeculectomy surgery. However, few patients do not get complete relief from glaucoma even after trabeculectomy surgery. Therefore, novel treatment options are required for providing relief to such patients.

Reducing intra-ocular pressure is the most important long term medical need of refractory glaucoma patients, which can be overcome by the use of Betaxolol drug, this in turn is expected to create lucrative opportunities for market growth. Moreover, people suffering from diabetic retinopathy are more prone to glaucoma.

The condition is associated with abnormal blood vessel growth, which can result in retinopathy and leads to blockage of natural drainage of the eye. Thus, increase diabetic patient pool may also augment the growth of the betaxolol market size.
