Glaucoma Market Forecasted to Reach USD 6.9 Billion by 2034
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases characterized by optic nerve damage, often due to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). It is a leading cause of irreversible blindness, particularly among elderly populations. The two most common types are primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and angle-closure glaucoma, with POAG accounting for over 70% of glaucoma cases.Download Full PDF Sample Copy of Market Report @ https://exactitudeconsultancy.com/request-sample/72297
With the growing burden of aging populations, rising prevalence of diabetes, and increased awareness of eye health, the glaucoma patient pool continues to expand.
