What have been the primary factors driving the astigmatism market’s growth?
The increasing prevalence of vision impairment is expected to propel the growth of the astigmatism market going forward. Vision impairment is a condition where a person experiences partial or complete loss of eyesight that cannot be fully corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or medical treatment. The growing prevalence of vision impairment is driven by an aging population, increasing diabetes and eye diseases, excessive screen time, and inadequate access to eye care in certain areas. Astigmatism contributes to vision impairment by causing blurred or distorted vision due to an irregular shape of the cornea or lens, which disrupts the proper focus of light on the retina. For instance, in December 2023, according to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), a US-based government agency, the number of individuals diagnosed with vision impairments was 19,551 in 2022 compared to 17,478 in 2021. Moreover, over 19,000 new diagnoses have been reported in just the first seven months of 2023. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of vision impairment is driving the growth of the astigmatism market.
