Introduction
Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD) is a progressive, degenerative corneal disease characterized by endothelial cell loss, guttae formation, corneal edema, blurred vision, and glare sensitivity. It is one of the most common causes of corneal blindness and a leading indication for endothelial keratoplasty worldwide.

Modern surgical techniques such as DMEK (Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty) and DSAEK/DSEK (Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty) have emerged as gold-standard treatments, offering faster recovery, superior visual outcomes, and reduced complication rates. Meanwhile, emerging cell-based therapies promise to lower dependence on donor tissue in the future.

Key Takeaways
• The FECD Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% through the forecast period.
• FECD is one of the most prevalent corneal diseases in individuals aged 50 and above.
• Advancements in DMEK, DSAEK, specular microscopy, and OCT imaging are improving diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
• Regenerative technologies-including corneal endothelial cell therapy and ROCK inhibitors-hold strong future potential.
• Key players include Alcon, Johnson & Johnson Vision, CorneaGen, Bausch + Lomb, Zeiss, Emmecell, and Aerie Pharmaceuticals.

Market Drivers
• Rising prevalence of FECD: Particularly common among women and elderly populations.
• Increasing cataract surgery rates: Postoperative endothelial stress and age-linked degeneration contribute to FECD progression.
• Technological improvements in keratoplasty: DMEK and DSAEK enable superior visual recovery with minimal invasiveness.
• Growth of diagnostic imaging tools: Specular microscopy and OCT significantly enhance disease monitoring.
• Innovation in regenerative medicine: Cell-based therapies and ROCK inhibitors showing clinical promise for reversing endothelial dysfunction.
