24 Mar, 2025

What Has Been the Growth of the Diagnostic And Monitoring Ophthalmic Devices And Equipment Market So Far?

The diagnostic and monitoring ophthalmic devices and equipment market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of diagnostic and monitoring ophthalmic devices and equipment has experienced robust growth recently. It is projected to increase from $5.22 billion in 2024 to $5.63 billion in 2025, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%.
Factors such as an aging demographic, advancements in ophthalmic imaging technology, a high incidence of eye-related ailments, and the widespread prevalence of diabetes contributed to the growth observed in the historical period.

What Is the Forecasted Market Size and Growth Rate for The Diagnostic And Monitoring Ophthalmic Devices And Equipment Market Size In The Coming Years?

The diagnostic and monitoring ophthalmic devices and equipment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Over the coming years, the market for diagnostic and monitoring ophthalmic devices and equipment is projected to experience a significant increase in size. It is expected to reach a valuation of $6.78 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%.
The growth anticipated in the forecast period can be ascribed to a few key factors like the surge in emerging markets, the advancement of telemedicine and teleophthalmology, value-based healthcare, along with support and reimbursements from regulatory bodies. Further, the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) integration, portability and handheld devices, home monitoring solutions, and 3D and wide-field imaging will comprise the primary trends during the forecast timeframe.

What Factors Are Driving Growth In The Diagnostic And Monitoring Ophthalmic Devices And Equipment Market?

The escalating prevalence of diabetes is speculated to fuel the progression of diagnostic and monitoring apparatus in the ophthalmic devices industry in the near future. Diabetes is a lifelong ailment that arises when the body is incapable of producing or effectively utilizing insulin, a hormone that controls the blood sugar levels. Devices like smart contact lenses, which fall under the category of diagnostic and monitoring equipment in ophthalmology, hold the potential to supervise glucose levels continually and also treat diabetic retinopathy. These devices can keep track of glucose levels wirelessly and dispense real-time data to the wearer. For instance, as reported by the Office for Health Improvement & Disparities, a UK governmental department, in March 2024, from March 2022 to March 2023, there was a 22% rise in type 1 diabetic patients receiving all eight recommended care procedures, while for type 2 diabetes patients, it elevated by 21%. Moreover, the proportion achieving the target HbA1c levels climbed to 37.9%, the topmost mark ever noted by the National Diabetes Audit (NDA). Hence, the rising prevalence of diabetes is propelling the advancement of the diagnostic and monitoring apparatus in the ophthalmic devices industry.
