Which industry factors have accelerated the diabetic macular edema (dme) market’s expansion?
The increase in prevalence of diabetes is expected to drive the growth of the diabetic macular edema (DME) market going forward. The increasing prevalence of diabetes is attributed to factors such as sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, rising obesity rates, aging populations, and genetic predisposition. Diabetes causes diabetic macular edema by damaging retinal blood vessels, leading to leakage of fluid into the macula and resulting in swelling. For instance, in June 2023, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, a US-based public health research institute, reported that over half a billion people globally were living with diabetes. This number is expected to more than double, reaching 1.3 billion people by 2050. Therefore, the increase in prevalence of diabetes is driving the growth of the diabetic macular edema (DME) market.

The diabetic macular edema (dme) market research report from The Business Research Company offers global market size, growth rate, regional shares, competitor analysis, detailed segments, trends, and opportunities.
Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a complication of diabetes that occurs when fluid accumulates in the macula, the central part of the retina responsible for sharp vision. This swelling is caused by damaged blood vessels leaking fluid and proteins into the retinal tissue, leading to vision impairment or blindness if left untreated. DME is a common cause of vision loss in diabetic patients and is associated with diabetic retinopathy.
