Intraocular Lens Market Projected to witness a
Single Digit CAGR during 2018 - 2026
Intraocular Lens Market, by Flexibility (Folded and Rigid), by Product Type
(Premium Intraocular Lens (Multifocal Intraocular lens, Accommodating
Intraocular lens and Toric Intraocular lens), Monofocal Intraocular Lens,
Preloaded Intraocular Lens, Others), By Material (Polymethylmethacrylate,
Silicone, Hydrophilic, Hydrophobic Acrylic), By End User (Hospitals, Ambulatory

Geography - Global Forecast to 2025
Intraocular lens (IOLs) are medical devices implanted inside the eye to replace natural lens when it is
removed during cataract surgery. Intraocular lens area also used during few vision correction surgery.
Depending on patient’s visual need and lifestyle; wide variety of intraocular lens are present in the
market, including aspheric IOLs, toric IOLs, multifocal IOLs, monofocal IOLs, accommodating IOLs,
preloaded IOLs, and among others. Moreover, depending on need during cataract surgery and in order
to get recommended results; surgeons can mix two different multifocal lens or two different types of
intraocular lenses.
The Global Intraocular Lens Market was valued at US$ 3.8 billion in 2017 and is expected to
witness a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period (2017 – 2025).
Increasing government initiatives and awareness programs for cataract patient with aim to eliminate
blindness, coupled with growing prevalence of cataract surgeries and introduction of new affordable
intraocular lens by various key players are expected to drive growth of the intraocular lens market over
the forecast period. Furthermore, significant increase in aging population, high prevalence of diabetes,
exposure to ultraviolet sunlight, and family history are the factors contributing to the growth of the
global market. For instance, according to American Diabetes Association (ADA) in 2015, around 30.3
million Americans or 9.4% of the population had diabetes, which are likely to develop glaucoma and
cataract.
Market Dynamics
The increasing government initiatives and awareness campaign to spread the awareness among cataract
patients and the increasing prevalence of diabetes may shift the patient towards the cataract surgery, in
turn boosting growth of the intraocular lens market during the forecast period. For instance, according
to the International Diabetes Foundation (IDF) 2017 statistics, the number of people with diabetes aged
between 20 to 79 years are increasing, globally. Among which, Africa (156%) is accounted to register
the highest diabetic population, followed by Middle East (110%), South East Asia (84%), Latin and
Central America(62%), North America (35%), Europe (16%) and Western Pacific (15%). Moreover,
cataract is major cause of blindness, which is projected to fuel growth of the intraocular lens market
over the forecast period. For instance, according to National Federation of the Blind, 2014 data
findings, an estimated around 10 million people in the U.S. are blind or visually impaired. According to
European Blind Union, in 2016, over 30 million people are partially sighted or blind in Europe and an
average of 1 in 30 Europeans experience sight loss. According to World Health Organization (WHO)
2010 fact sheet, cataract accounted for around 50% of blindness in China.

Increasing number of Cataract Surgeries is expected to Drive Growth of the Intraocular Lens
Market
Diabetes, prolonged exposure to sunlight, consumption of tobacco and alcohol are the major factors
causing cataract and rising number of cataract patients increasing the demand for cataract surgeries. In
addition to this, rising diabetes patients has led to increase in number of cataract surgery, as diabetes is
a major cause of blindness. According to World Health Organization (WHO), around 422 million
people were suffering from diabetes in 2014. Moreover, according to WHO in 2017, an estimated 253
million people were suffering from vision impairment, out of which around 36 million population was
blind and 217 million had moderate to severe vision impairment. The cataract is a major cause of
blindness in America, as it is related to the aging process. According to WHO in 2017, occurrence of
cataract globally is 46%, which supports the growth of intraocular lens market.
