Our yearly report on the global IOL market is the leading industry source for accurate and timely information on intraocular lens markets throughout the world. We use eight geographic/economic categories to examine global markets: the US, Western Europe, Japan, other wealthy nations, China, India, Latin America, and the rest of the world. We compile and analyze data on IOL procedure volumes, IOL market shares by technology and manufacturer, and average prices. The data is drawn from our quarterly surveys of ophthalmic surgeons, company financial reporting, interviews with company executives and published clinical data. A five-year market forecast by segment and by geographic region is also included.


Our Cataract Surgeon Survey is designed to gather information that increases the understanding of industry dynamics and provides important insights into leading industry trends.

Ultrasonic phacoemulsification is the standard of care for cataract surgery in all wealthy nations, and the technology is on the way to becoming the standard of care in less developed regions, as well. The sophisticated phaco machines and disposable kits required to perform modern cataract surgery create a significant market opportunity.

 

Market Scope expects global sales of approximately $840 million in cataract equipment and dedicated machines in 2008. In addition, we forecast that the market will increase to $1.15 billion by 2013 at a compounded annual growth rate of 6.4 percent.

 

The aging of the global population will lead to steady increases in ophthalmic surgery during the next five years. This and rising concerns over cross-contamination are key factors that will drive growth in the single-use ophthalmic surgical products market during the period. New technologies and products such as refractive IOLs will add to the mix of market drivers, as will the increased demand for labor-saving devices, which has been spurred by a growing shortage of ophthalmologists and nurses.

 

Market Scope expects the global ophthalmic single-use surgical products market to generate $1.78 billion in sales in 2008, and we forecast that the market will climb to $2.31 billion by 2013, representing a compounded annual growth rate of 5.4 percent.
