What are the upcoming trends in the Intraocular Lens market?

The increasing government initiatives and awareness campaign to spread the awareness among cataract patients and the increasing prevalence of diabetes may shift the patient towards the cataract surgery, in turn boosting growth of the intraocular lens market during the forecast period.

For instance, according to the International Diabetes Foundation (IDF) 2017 statistics, the number of people with diabetes aged between 20 to 79 years are increasing, globally. Among which, Africa (156%) is accounted to register the highest diabetic population, followed by Middle East (110%), South East Asia (84%), Latin and Central America(62%), North America (35%), Europe (16%) and Western Pacific (15%). Moreover, cataract is major cause of blindness, which is projected to fuel growth of the intraocular lens market over the forecast period.

For instance, according to National Federation of the Blind, 2014 data findings, an estimated around 10 million people in the U.S. are blind or visually impaired. According to European Blind Union, in 2016, over 30 million people are partially sighted or blind in Europe and an average of 1 in 30 Europeans experience sight loss. According to World Health Organization (WHO) 2010 fact sheet, cataract accounted for around 50% of blindness in China. Furthermore, according to National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), 2010 data findings, an estimated 11.2 million people above age 40 years suffered from glaucoma in India.

Recent advances in the cataract surgery have increased the safety and efficacy of surgical procedure due to which huge number of people are opting for cataract treatment. For instance, recent technological advancement in ophthalmology such as introduction of the femtosecond laser, an infrared laser with the wavelength of 1053 nm into the cataract surgery has increased the safety and predictability of the cataract procedure.

Currently various femtosecond laser systems are available commercially which are used in corneal refractive surgery. Femtosecond laser technology offers potential benefits into the field of cataract surgery. Femtosecond laser (FSL) able to perform three important steps in cataract surgery such as corneal incisions, capsulotomy, and lens fragmentation. Moreover, due to the increasing numbers of cataract and refractive surgery and demand for new technology in clinical practices, key players in the market are engaged in offering mobile surgery platforms. For instance, in February 2013, Sightpath Medical launched MoFe, or Mobile Femtosecond, a mobile femtosecond laser cataract surgery suite.

Furthermore, innovation in intraocular lens material such as introduction of novel intraocular lens with full range of continuous high-quality vision, trifocal intraocular lens for patients with astigmatism undergoing cataract surgery, an Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) intraocular lens, and among others; have enabled surgery to be done through a small incision, which also led to quick recovery of the patient. Invention of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices has reduced the risk of endothelial decompensation and corneal edema. It has transformed the cataract surgery, providing a great opportunity to intraocular lens market.

However, over pricing of intraocular lens and stringent regulations in getting premarket approval for intraocular lens is expected to restrain growth of intraocular lens market over the forecast period. For instance, the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA), India in 2017 revealed the overpricing of intraocular lenses, which stated that the patients undergoing cataract surgeries are priced at least 200% to 300% higher than the purchase cost.

Major players operating in market include STAAR Surgical Company, HOYA Corporation, Lenstec, Inc., Ophtec BV, Johnson & Johnson, Alcon, Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Rayner Intraocular Lenses Limited, and HumanOptics AG.
