Which major factors have contributed to the expansion of the eye infections market?
The increasing incidence and prevalence of eye-related disorders is expected to drive the eye infections market. Eye-related disorders refer to a range of conditions affecting the eyes, including diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, and refractive errors such as myopia and hyperopia. The increase in the number of patients with eye-related disorders is due to factors such as aging populations, lifestyle changes, environmental factors, and lack in diagnostic capabilities leading to delay in problem detection. Eye infections can contribute to the development or worsening of eye-related disorders by causing inflammation, tissue damage, and impairing the eye’s natural defenses, ultimately leading to complications such as vision loss or chronic conditions. For instance, in October 2024, according to the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based health authority, in 2023, 130,746 individuals underwent surgical treatment for advanced trachoma, and 32.9 million received antibiotics, with a global coverage of 29%. Therefore, the increasing incidence and prevalence of eye-related disorders will drive the eye infections market going forward.
