Ophthalmic Perimeters Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Static, Kinetic, Combination), By End-use (Hospital, Ophthalmic Clinic), By Region (North America, Europe, APAC, Latin America, MEA), And Segment Forecasts, 2021 - 2028

Report Overview

The global ophthalmic perimeters market size was valued at USD 267.5 million in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3% from 2021 to 2028. The growing prevalence of ophthalmic conditions such as glaucoma and cataract is expected to drive the overall market growth. Moreover, an increasing number of product launches in the market is also expected to boost the market growth.

End-users such as hospitals and ophthalmic clinics including non-profit organizations are expanding their presence in rural areas especially in Asia and Africa region. Such strategic initiatives are expected to expand the reach of modern ophthalmic care and hence are expected to propel market growth.

The Covid-19 pandemic that is caused by SARS-CoV-2 had multiple repercussions of unprecedented levels. The infection ranges from asymptomatic to mild to life-threatening conditions. This virus can affect all the organs in the human body. Ophthalmologists across the globe were reporting many indications of eye infection. This data was further used to help the professionals understand the possible symptoms and the stage of this viral disease when the eye infections probably occur. Various literature searches were conducted for ophthalmic manifestation for Covid-19 during 2020 and early 2021. These kinds of literature include 46 case reports, 8 case series, 11 observational studies, 5 interventional studies, 3 animal models’ studies, and 6 meta-analyses.

Conjunctivitis was identified as the most common ophthalmic condition which may develop at any point during Covid-19 infection. The ophthalmologists should ask for relevant patient history, look for specific symptoms, and advise appropriate diagnostic tests and then lessen the infection spread and initiate early treatment to minimize the effect of life and vision-threatening conditions.

The occurrence of few ophthalmic conditions along with Covid infection resulted in maintaining the market size throughout the pandemic. The growth rate is also not affected and is supposed to be lucrative over the forecast period.

The expansion of non-profit organizations and the introduction of ambulatory care centers are major factors boosting the demand for ophthalmic perimeters. Growing competition in the ophthalmic care service industry is expected to fuel the demand for technologically advanced perimetry systems during the forecast period.

Technological advancements in perimetry systems include high-quality displays, development of image processing and analysis software, and simplification of operations. Moreover, the introduction of advanced perimeters at competitive prices is expected to fuel the rate of replacement of old perimeters.

Manufacturers of the ophthalmic perimeters are conducting perimetry courses to enable users to learn swift usage of the device. These courses also incorporate workshops to provide hands-on experience to the users. Apart from conducting courses for perimetry, manufacturers are also participating in medical trade shows, conferences, and medical exhibitions to showcase products such as ophthalmic perimeters. Such initiatives by the manufacturers are expected to impact customer loyalty and boost the adoption of the advanced device

Product Insights
