Refractive Surgery Market, By Technology (Laser Systems and Diagnostic Equipments), By Application (Myopia, Hyperopia, Astigmatism, Presbyopia, and Dry eyes), By Type of Procedure (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK), Photorefractive Keratectomy

Refractive surgery refers to a group of surgical procedures that aims to reduce or eliminate dependency on glasses and contact lenses by correcting refractive errors in vision. Refractive errors occur due to abnormal focusing of light inside the eye and the common ones include myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. Over the past few decades, the global refractive surgery market has witnessed substantial growth owing to the increasing prevalence of refractive errors and technological advancements in ophthalmology. According to the World Health Organization, around 2.5 billion people globally suffer from near-sightedness, far-sightedness, or astigmatism. Developed economies largely account for higher demand for refractive surgery given higher awareness levels and accessibility to advanced healthcare infrastructure.

Market Dynamics:

Major growth drivers for the global refractive surgery market include rapidly growing geriatric population which is more susceptible to refractive errors, increasing awareness about refractive surgical procedures among patients, and rising healthcare expenditure in developing nations. Industry players are aggressively conducting marketing campaigns to educate people regarding various vision correction options. However, high costs of laser refractive systems and surgeries continue to limit market expansion to some extent. Ongoing research and development activities to develop safe and precision laser systems are expected to create new opportunities in the market. For example, the development of new laser-based refractive techniques like LASIK and LASEK Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) have enhanced success rates and reduced risks associated with older procedures.
