The global eye testing equipment market was valued at $2,638 million in 2017 and is expected to reach $3,914 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 5.0% from 2018 to 2025. Ophthalmic diagnostic devices/eye testing equipment/optometry devices are used for detection and analysis of eye-related diseases such as refractive error, cataract, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. These diagnostic devices are of utmost importance to provide proper treatment to the patients to avoid further damage to the vision or loss of vision.
Considerable increase in the incidence of eye-associated disorders especially cataract and glaucoma across the globe has played a significant role in driving the growth of eye testing equipment market. Immediate treatment of people suffering from glaucoma is essential as glaucoma in severe cases may result in loss of vision permanently. This immediate attention is possible only when the patients undergo comprehensive eye examinations wherein eye testing devices are utilized for effective diagnosis. In addition, glaucoma is anticipated to be the leading cause of blindness among people in the age group of 60 years and above. Whereas, cataract is a condition wherein clouding of the lens occurs resulting in decreased vision, and its incidence has been on the rise over the years.
The global eye testing equipment market is segmented based on device, application, end user, and region. Based on device, the market is classified into slit lamp, biometer, perimeter, tonometer, optical coherence tomography (oct) scanner, fundus camera, autorefractor & keratometer, and other devices.
