Global contact lens market is projected to witness a CAGR of 7.68% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 14.8 billion in 2023 to USD 26.74 billion in 2031. The contact lens market is driven by factors like the rising prevalence of refractive errors, such as myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, and astigmatism, especially among the aging population, technological advancements, and the introduction of innovative contact lens solutions by market players. The market is also being fueled by the growing preference for contact lenses over prescription eyeglasses.
Contact lenses are thin, curved lenses placed on the film of tears that cover the surface of the eye. They are used to correct vision or for cosmetic or therapeutic reasons. Contact lenses are often used as an alternative to glasses. There are different types of contact lenses, including daily disposable lenses, extended-wear lenses, and rigid gas-permeable lenses. They are used to correct various vision problems, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. Contact lenses should be prescribed and fixed in the eyes by a qualified eye care professional.
However, risks associated with the use of contact lenses, such as dry eye, eye abrasion, and conjunctivitis are major challenges to the expansion of the contact lens market. Alongside, the cost of lenses, economic constraints in emerging countries, technological barriers in the case of smart contact lenses, and discomforts while wearing contact lenses are some other restraints to the expansion of the market.
In October 2023, Alcon launched TOTAL30 Multifocal contact lenses for patients with presbyopia. The TOTAL30 Multifocal lens features Water Gradient Technology, delivering almost 100% water to its surface, which helps combat dryness caused by digital device usage. Through this launch, Alcon expands drastically in the fast-growing market for contact lenses. Presently, the TOTAL30 Multifocal lens is marketed in the United States and selected international markets.
Rising Prevalence of Refractive Errors
The prevalence of refractive errors, such as myopia and hyperopia, is rising globally, particularly among schoolchildren. The increasing prevalence of refractive errors has been associated with factors, such as educational workloads, reduced time spent outdoors, and lifestyle changes, which may contribute to the growing burden of visual impairment. The unmet need for refractive error correction, especially among adolescents, has been attributed to socioeconomic barriers and inadequate access to healthcare services. Although, the use of contact lenses in refractive error improvisations has significantly improved the scenario. With the growing prevalence of refractive errors and the rising disposable income of individuals, the demand for contact lenses is expected to propel in the future.
For instance, as per the Global Refractive Error Expert Consultation meeting report published in May 2023, uncorrected refractive error is the primary cause of vision impairment among both children and adults. It is estimated that only 36% of people with distance vision impairment due to refractive error have been provided with appropriate spectacles globally. Additionally, more than 800 million people have near vision impairment, or presbyopia, which could be treated with a pair of spectacles.
Technological Advancements in Contact Lenses
Recent developments in contact lens technology have led to innovative proposals for contact lenses beyond vision correction. Researchers and the contact lens industry are working on various advancements that are expected to significantly broaden the range of contact lens applications in the coming years. These include the use of contact lenses for myopia control, delivery of topical drugs, management of ocular surface diseases, and even as novel biosensors. Furthermore, the development of contact lens sensors, such as smart contact lenses, is also being explored, which could potentially monitor health parameters, improve vision, and provide various other features like a smartphone. The potential future opportunities for novel contact lenses extend far beyond their traditional uses, and it is expected that contact lenses in the next decade will be quite different from what they are now, further expanding the scope of the global contact lens market.
