North America, at present, is a dominant region because of the strong demand for targeted drug delivery to the posterior eye and concentration of prominent manufacturers.

However, there are a number of factors serving to restrain the market as well. As per the lead analyst of the TMR report: “Ocular inserts and implants provide advantages such as high corneal penetration, greater dissolution area, and sustained release of medication. However, the foreign body sensation in the eye due to the solidity of the implants lead to discomfort accompanied by irritation, drug dilution, and excessive lachrymation. Therefore, even though they provide enhanced drug delivery alternatives, the discomfort is likely to arrest the growth of this segment.”
