Ophthalmic viscoelastic devices (OVD) are medical equipment used during eye surgeries. They are employed in ophthalmic and numerous eye surgeries, such as glaucoma, corneal transplant, and vitreoretinal and cataract surgery. These devices protect ocular structures from mechanical trauma, divide tissue, create space, resolve adhesions, act as a wetting agent, or as an instrument to facilitate the surgical procedure.
OVDs are widely used to maintain space in the eye during intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, stabilize and deepen the anterior chamber, and protect ocular structures during anterior segment surgery. These devices assist in creating pressure within the anterior chamber, compartmentalizing inside the attention, and providing a faster and safer surgery with better recovery for the patients.
Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices (OVD) Market Trends
The increasing number of ophthalmic surgeries across the globe is one of the key factors driving the market growth. OVDs are widely used to maintain, preserve space, displace, stabilize, and protect tissues. In line with this, improving access to ophthalmic care facilities and rising awareness about ocular disorders are acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the widespread utilization of viscoadaptive ophthalmic viscosurgical devices due to the increasing number of complex ocular surgical cases and its biphasic benefit of eliminating the need for two syringes is propelling the market growth.In addition to this, viscoadaptive OVD is also preferred in complex ocular surgeries, such as pediatric cataract surgery, patient with floppy iris syndrome, trauma, Fuchs dystrophy, and other cases to avoid post-surgical complications, which, in turn, is favoring the market growth. Apart from this, the introduction of a combination package of cohesive and dispersive OVD contained in a single unit, that is used simultaneously during procedures and is cost-effective, ensures quality standards and eases out ophthalmic surgeons’ activities is providing an impetus to the market growth.
Additionally, the rising geriatric population and the increasing prevalence of diabetes and age-related ocular disorders are positively influencing the market growth. Other factors, including the rising expenditure capacities of consumers, extensive research and development (R&D) activities, significant expansion in the healthcare industry, and the implementation of various government initiatives to control the rising vision impairment by compelling producers to introduce new ophthalmic equipment, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
