Market Summary
The Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis Market is expanding as VKC-an allergic, recurrent, and often seasonal inflammatory disease-becomes more widely diagnosed, particularly in children and adolescents living in warm, dry, and dusty climates. VKC can lead to intense itching, photophobia, mucous discharge, corneal damage, and even vision loss if left untreated. Increased awareness of the condition among ophthalmologists and pediatricians, along with improved diagnostic protocols, is expanding the documented patient pool worldwide.

The market is shaped by growing adoption of topical antihistamines, dual-action mast cell stabilizers, corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors (cyclosporine, tacrolimus), and emerging biologics that target underlying allergic inflammation. Sustained-release formulations, preservative-free eye drops, and pediatric-friendly dosing strategies are improving treatment outcomes. Regions with high environmental allergen exposure-Middle East, Africa, India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America-represent significant growth opportunities due to higher VKC burden.
