Description

Ophthalmology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the health of the eye. It includes the anatomy, physiology, and diseases that may affect the eye. Whereas, ophthalmic drugs are used to treat various disorders associated with the eyes, such as cataracts, glaucoma, infection, allergy, and inflammation, retinal disorders (such as wet age-related macular degeneration, dry age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and others), and other ophthalmic disorders.

Market Dynamics

Rise in prevalence of ophthalmic disorders, growing geriatric population, rise in demand for safe and effective ophthalmic drugs, rise in focus on the development of ophthalmic drugs, and increase in research and development are major factors expected to propel growth of the global ophthalmic drugs market during the forecast period.

For instance, in April 2022, Sandoz announced the US launch of its generic combination eyedrop brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate ophthalmic solution 0.2%/0.5%, AB-rated generic equivalent to AbbVie’s COMBIGAN, to lower eye pressure in patients with ocular hypertension. Moreover, in March 2022, Théa Pharma acquired seven branded ophthalmic products from Akorn Operating Company LLC to strengthen its position as a significant provider of products developed to satisfy the demands of eye care specialists across the United States.
