What are the top drivers to the rising demand in the prescription lens market?
The increasing incidence of vision impairment is expected to propel the growth of the prescription lens market going forward. Vision impairment refers to conditions affecting the eyes, ranging from common issues such as partial vision loss and blindness to more serious ailments such as macular degeneration. Vision impairment is on the rise due to increased screen time, digital device usage, and aging populations, contributing to conditions such as digital eye strain, myopia, and age-related macular degeneration. Prescription lenses aid in correcting vision impairments such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia by refracting light to focus properly on the retina, improving vision clarity, and reducing strain. For instance, in May 2023, according to a report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a US-based international resource for scientific research, approximately 200 million individuals worldwide experienced age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in 2020. By 2040, it is projected that the number of people affected by the condition will increase to about 288 million. Therefore, the increasing incidence of vision impairment is driving the growth of the prescription lens market.
