Which Factors Are Boosting Growth In The Ultrafast Laser Technology Market?
The escalation in the number of eye diseases is poised to drive the ultrafast laser technology market's growth. Eye diseases encompass various conditions that affect the eye including refractive issues like nearsightedness and farsightedness, cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, etc, which can hinder vision and affect overall ocular health. The escalation in eye diseases is attributed to ageing population, rising chronic diseases like diabetes, environmental elements like pollution, and lifestyle habits including extensive screen time and exposure to UV rays. Ultrafast laser technology, especially femtosecond lasers, is utilized in eye ailments for accurate corneal reshaping in refractive surgeries including LASIK and for forming corneal flaps with minimal tissue injury. This technology assists in precision and accelerates recovery times. For instance, per the data by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in May 2024, an organization based in the US utilizing science and data to safeguard public health, over 3.4 million Americans aged above 40 years were blind or had impaired vision, a number set to double by 2030. Thus, the escalation in eye diseases is bolstering the ultrafast laser technology market's growth.
