The global intraocular lens market is primarily driven by the growing prevalence of cataract and increasing cataract surgery rates worldwide. Intraocular lenses are artificial lenses implanted in the eyes of patients undergoing cataract extraction surgery. These lenses help provide clear vision by replacing the cloudy natural lens. The advantages associated with intraocular lenses such as restoring clear vision, biocompatibility, and stability have increased their adoption rates among cataract patients.
The Global Intraocular Lens Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5,076.1 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.2% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030.
Key Takeaways
