Intermediate Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Market is expected to reach USD 350 billion by 2034

Intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD) represents a crucial stage in the progression of AMD, where visual impairment becomes more pronounced but has not yet reached the advanced or geographic atrophy stage. At this phase, drusen deposits are more extensive, and patients may begin experiencing significant challenges with central vision. While not all individuals with intermediate AMD progress to advanced disease, this stage represents an important therapeutic window for intervention.

The global burden of AMD is increasing rapidly, driven by aging demographics, rising life expectancy, and growing awareness of eye health. Intermediate AMD accounts for a significant share of the AMD patient pool, highlighting the urgent need for effective screening, management, and preventive therapies. Advances in imaging technologies, nutraceuticals, biologics, and regenerative medicine are reshaping the treatment landscape. With governments, healthcare providers, and pharmaceutical companies intensifying their focus on ophthalmology, the intermediate AMD market is poised for substantial growth.

Market Overview
According to Exactitude Consultancy, the global Intermediate AMD Market was valued at USD 200 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 350 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2025 and 2034.

Key Highlights
• Massive market opportunity: Intermediate AMD represents a large segment of the AMD patient pool, with millions at risk of progression to advanced disease.
• Drivers: Aging populations, rising healthcare investments, and improved diagnostic imaging (OCT, fundus photography, AI-enabled screening).
• Challenges: Limited curative treatments, compliance with long-term management, and disparities in access to advanced eye care.
• Leading players: Novartis, Roche, Regeneron, Apellis Pharmaceuticals, and Iveric Bio (Astellas) dominate the market with strong ophthalmology pipelines.

Segmentation Analysis
The intermediate AMD market can be segmented by therapy type, stage of intervention, end use, and region.

By Therapy Type
• Nutritional supplements (AREDS formulations, antioxidants, vitamins)
• Emerging biologics and complement inhibitors
• Stem cell and regenerative therapies
• Assistive devices and digital solutions

By Stage of Intervention
• Preventive (lifestyle management, supplements)
• Early therapeutic intervention (biologics, clinical-stage drugs)
• Supportive (vision aids, digital tools)

By End Use
• Hospitals
• Specialty eye clinics
• Ambulatory surgical centers
• Homecare settings

Segmentation Summary
Nutritional supplements are the most widely adopted treatment for intermediate AMD, supported by evidence from the AREDS and AREDS2 clinical studies. However, emerging biologics and complement inhibitors are expected to grow fastest, targeting disease pathways to slow progression to advanced AMD. Regenerative therapies and digital vision aids are also gaining momentum, creating new opportunities for patient care.
