What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the glaucoma market?
The rising prevalence of chronic eye conditions is expected to propel the growth of the glaucoma market going forward. Chronic eye conditions are long-term disorders that affect the eyes, often causing persistent vision impairment or discomfort and requiring ongoing management or treatment. Chronic eye conditions are rising due to aging populations, increased screen time, lifestyle factors, and a higher prevalence of conditions like diabetes and hypertension. Glaucoma treatment is required for chronic eye conditions to lower intraocular pressure, prevent further optic nerve damage, and preserve vision, as untreated glaucoma can lead to irreversible blindness. For instance, in December 2024, according to the National Health Service (NHS), a UK-based publicly funded healthcare system, over 2 million people in the UK are living with sight loss in 2024. Further, the number of people living with sight loss is projected to increase by 27%, reaching approximately 2.8 million by 2035. Therefore, the rising prevalence of chronic eye conditions is driving the glaucoma market.

What significant trends should we anticipate in the glaucoma market over the forecast period?
Major companies operating in the glaucoma market are focusing on developing innovative therapies, such as Rho-kinase (ROCK) inhibitors, to offer a dual mechanism of action, reducing intraocular pressure through both enhanced outflow of aqueous humor and the relaxation of trabecular meshwork cells, making them effective in treating glaucoma. Rho-kinase (ROCK) inhibitors are a class of drugs that target and block the activity of Rho-kinase enzymes, which regulate cell contraction and treat glaucoma to reduce intraocular pressure. For instance, in July 2023, Santen Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., a Japan-based eye care products company, launched Roclanda in the UK. Roclanda is a fixed-dose combination (FDC) of latanoprost and netarsudil, a novel Rho-kinase (ROCK) inhibitor, that effectively reduces intraocular pressure (IOP) by targeting trabecular meshwork dysfunction. It is indicated for adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who have not achieved adequate IOP reduction with monotherapy using a prostaglandin or netarsudil. The introduction of Roclanda in Europe marks the first new class of glaucoma medication in 25 years, offering a breakthrough in treatment. By combining netarsudil and latanoprost, Roclanda works synergistically to increase outflow through trabecular (conventional) and uveoscleral (unconventional) pathways, providing a comprehensive approach to managing elevated IOP.

What Does The Glaucoma Market Report 2025 Offer?
The glaucoma market research report from The Business Research Company offers global market size, growth rate, regional shares, competitor analysis, detailed segments, trends, and opportunities.
Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders that cause damage to the optic nerve, typically resulting from increased intraocular pressure (IOP). This damage can lead to progressive, irreversible vision loss if untreated, making glaucoma one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness worldwide, and early detection through regular eye exams is critical to prevent vision loss.
