Contact Lenses Market Scope
Market Research Future (MRFR)’s contact lenses market share report reveals that in 2022, the industry size was estimated to be worth USD 8.9 billion. According to projections, the contact lenses market would increase from USD 9.21 billion in 2023 to USD 12.13 billion by 2032, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.50% throughout the forecast period (2023-2032).
Growth Boosters and Deterrents
The Contact Lenses Market is witnessing an enthralling interplay of drivers and constraints determining its trajectory in the changing world of eye care. As the desire for convenience and improved vision correction grows in popularity, so does the demand for contact lenses, which is driven by lifestyle preferences and digital device usage. Silicone hydrogel materials and smart contact lenses, for example, are revolutionising the market, providing wearers with unprecedented comfort and usefulness.
Despite these prospects, problems remain; rising healthcare expenses, environmental concerns over disposable lenses, and the need for frequent eye exams are all major restraints.
To flourish in this changing landscape, industry leaders must find a balance between innovation and sustainability, ensuring that the Contact Lenses Market continues to provide clear vision and comfort while meeting the demands of an increasingly discerning consumer base.
Market Segmentation
Depending on wear type, the contact lenses industry caters to disposable lenses, daily disposable lenses, conventional lenses, and frequent replacement lenses.
Different types of contact lenses generally sold worldwide include therapeutic lenses, corrective lens, and cosmetic and lifestyle-oriented lens. Corrective lenses have secured the lead in the market, with the biggest share of 43.2% in 2018.
Material-based segments are methacrylate hydrogel soft contact lens, gas-permeable contact lens, silicone hydrogel soft contact lens, and others.
Contact lenses are available in a variety of designs, such as multifocal lens, spherical lens, toric lens, and others. Multifocal lenses experience massive demand among the consumers, given the provision of multiple prescriptions. Contact lenses of this design find widespread use in treating age-related ophthalmic diseases such as presbyopia. Some of the benefits include higher visual acuity for those that need several prescriptions but all in one lens.
Regional Analysis
The American market has achieved the highest position out of all the regions, mainly due to the booming sales of contact lenses by virtue of mounting burden of eye-related disorders. Soaring popularity of colored and cosmetic lenses, especially among the youth would also add to the market strength in the region. Moreover, companies and researchers in the region explore new technologies to induce product innovations while also focusing on RD activities. The highest penetration of contact lenses can be seen in the United States, given the surging demand from the media and entertainment industries.
Europe accounts for the second-biggest market for contact lenses, thanks to the escalating cases of age-related eye diseases. The regional market could capture a moderate growth rate of 6.02%. Some of the most commonly occurring eye disorders in the region are hypermetropia, myopia, astigmatism, glaucoma, and presbyopia, which push the product demand to a large extent.
Asia Pacific is on track to attain the fastest growth in the next few years, in response to the growing of eye disorders along with the expanding market for colored lenses. Moreover, with several global multinational firms shifting to emerging countries and setting up their production units, the contact lenses industry is likely to receive a significant boost in the coming years. Surge in the purchasing capacity of the consumers in the region happens to be another major reason for the strong business growth. The market size in China will blossom rapidly in the future, particularly the cosmetic lens segment, considering the rapidly emerging beauty and grooming trends in the county.
Leading Companies
There are two types of companies that dominate the contact lenses market: Ophthalmic device manufacturers and Contact Lenses Retailers.
These firms work diligently on expanding their global reach by focusing on launching cutting-edge products and technologies. They adopt competitive tactics such as partnerships, collaborations, acquisition, and agreement to capture a higher share in the global industry.
