The 7 major keratoconus markets reached a value of US$ 202.1 Million in 2023. Looking forward, the publisher expects the 7MM to reach US$ 275.0 Million by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.48% during 2023-2034.
The keratoconus market has been comprehensively analyzed in this report titled "Keratoconus Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Keratoconus is a progressive vision disorder in which the normally round, dome-shaped cornea gradually thins and weakens, causing it to bulge outwards into a cone shape. This abnormal form hinders light entering the eye from properly focusing on the light-sensitive retina, resulting in vision distortion. Keratoconus usually begins in the teenage years or early adulthood and can worsen over time, though the ailment's progression rate varies from person to person. The characteristic sign of keratoconus is the perception of several "ghost" images, called monocular polyopia. The other common symptoms associated with this condition include sensitivity to light and glare, eye strain or itching, blurry vision, nearsightedness, sudden clouding of vision, irregular astigmatism, etc. The diagnosis typically involves a review of the patient's medical history, visual indications, physical examination, and family history of ocular disease. The other tests and procedures to confirm the condition include slit lamp examination and retinoscopy. The healthcare professional may also perform a handheld keratoscopy, in which a series of concentric rings of light is projected onto the cornea to provide a simple, noninvasive visualization of the corneal surface.
The increasing prevalence of chronic eye inflammation caused by allergies and the rising incidence of connective tissue disorders, such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and Marfan syndrome, are primarily driving the keratoconus market. Apart from this, the growing cases of overexposure to the sun and ultraviolet radiation causing oxidative damage to the eye are also augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of efficient medications, including vitamin B2, omega-3 dietary supplements, artificial tears, etc., to moisten eyes and provide soothing relief to patients is creating a positive outlook for the market. Besides this, the inflating application of corneal topography for diagnosing the ailment, which demonstrates the cornea's thickness in various locations, along with the power, size, and shape of the anterior and posterior surfaces, is also bolstering the market growth. Moreover, numerous key players are making extensive investments in introducing disease-modifying treatments that target slowing the progression of the condition by strengthening the cornea and preventing it from becoming thinner. This, in turn, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the shifting preferences from penetrating keratoplasty towards nonpenetrating keratoplasty on account of its several associated benefits, including faster recovery time, lower risk of rejection, less post-operative astigmatism, etc., are expected to drive the keratoconus market in the coming years.
This report provides an exhaustive analysis of the keratoconus market in the United States, EU5 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, and United Kingdom) and Japan. This includes treatment practices, in-market, and pipeline drugs, share of individual therapies, market performance across the seven major markets, market performance of key companies and their drugs, etc. The report also provides the current and future patient pool across the seven major markets. According to the report the United States has the largest patient pool for keratoconus and also represents the largest market for its treatment. Furthermore, the current treatment practice/algorithm, market drivers, challenges, opportunities, reimbursement scenario and unmet medical needs, etc. have also been provided in the report. This report is a must-read for manufacturers, investors, business strategists, researchers, consultants, and all those who have any kind of stake or are planning to foray into the keratoconus market in any manner.
