Intraocular Lens Market by Type (Monofocal IOLs (Spheric Monofocal IOLs), Premium IOLs (Accommodating IOLs)), Material (Hydrophobic Acrylic IOLs, PolyMethylMethAcrylate, Silicon IOLs), Application (Presbyopia), End User (Hospitals) - Global Forecast to 20

The intraocular lens market is projected to reach USD 6.17 billion by 2030 from USD 4.62 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period.

The intraocular lens market is driven by the rising global prevalence of cataracts, a growing elderly population, and the increasing adoption of premium lenses that offer enhanced visual outcomes. However, high costs of advanced IOLs, reimbursement limitations, and unequal access to skilled ophthalmic care restrain broader uptake. Opportunities emerge from expanding healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies, rising demand for presbyopia-correcting and EDOF IOLs, and continuous innovations aimed at improving postoperative vision and reducing complications, creating strong growth potential across regions.

Based on type, aspheric monofocal IOLs hold the largest market share because they deliver dependable visual clarity, reduce spherical aberrations, and enhance contrast sensitivity at an affordable cost. Their broad surgeon acceptance, strong safety profile, and extensive reimbursement coverage make them the standard choice for routine cataract surgeries. Consistent global availability and proven long-term outcomes further reinforce their dominant market position.

Based on material, hydrophobic acrylic IOLs hold the largest market share due to their excellent biocompatibility, low rates of posterior capsular opacification, and strong long-term optical performance. Surgeons prefer them for their stability, reduced glistening, and high patient satisfaction. Their widespread availability, proven clinical outcomes, and suitability across both standard and premium IOL categories further reinforce their dominant position in the global IOLs market.

North America holds the largest market share in the IOLs market due to its high volume of cataract surgeries, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and strong adoption of premium technologies, such as toric, multifocal, and EDOF IOLs. Favorable reimbursement policies, a well-established network of skilled ophthalmic surgeons, and continuous innovation from leading manufacturers further support market dominance. Additionally, high patient awareness, early uptake of new devices, and substantial healthcare spending reinforce North America’s leading position globally.
