According to Exactitude Consultancy, the Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) Market was valued at USD 5.2 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 8.6 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period. This reflects strong demand for anti-VEGF agents, corticosteroids, and combination therapies, alongside improved access to laser and pharmaceutical technologies.

Market Overview
The rise of DME cases closely follows the global diabetes epidemic, with more than 500 million adults currently affected by diabetes and millions at risk of vision-related complications. While DME can be debilitating, advances in drug therapy and laser interventions are significantly improving patient outcomes.

Key Highlights:
• Market Size 2024: USD 5.2 billion
• Forecast 2034: USD 8.6 billion
• CAGR 2025-2034: 5.2%
• Largest Region (2024): North America

Market Drivers:
• Rising prevalence of type 1 and type 2 diabetes worldwide.
• Increasing adoption of anti-VEGF therapies as the standard of care.
• Advancements in laser therapy and drug delivery systems.
• Growing awareness of diabetes-related vision complications.

Market Challenges:
• High cost of anti-VEGF injections and long treatment duration.
• Patient compliance issues due to frequent follow-up visits.
• Limited access to advanced therapies in developing regions.

Leading Players:
Global leaders such as Roche/Genentech, Novartis, Bayer, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, and Allergan (AbbVie) dominate the market with strong portfolios of anti-VEGF therapies and corticosteroid implants.
