Manufacturers of contact lens are increasingly geared for reducing the economic burden of uncorrected refractive errors in populations worldwide
They are leaning on design advancements, incorporating new biocompatible materials to enhance wearer's comfort to improve compliance among patients. Next-generation contact lens technology can serve as biomarkers for ocular diseases
ALBANY, New York, Feb. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Rising numbers of people with myopia in numerous regions across the world and substantial burden of vision impairment from uncorrected presbyopia in worldwide populations have been proportionately augmenting the numbers of contact lens wearers, observes a new study on the contact lens market. The global contact lenses market is projected to garner a CAGR of 4.3% from 2019 to 2027 and reach worth of US$ 10.75 bn by 2027, reveals the study by Transparency Market Research (TMR). The valuation of the market was pegged at US$ 7.31 bn in 2017.
"Relentless focus to test new materials for meeting the needs of the troika of comfort, functionality, and aesthetics among wearers of contact lens will continue to raise the ante higher for incumbent players. Additionally, addition of people with ocular diseases in the workforce and shifting demographic toward young adults have catalyzed investments in contact lens technology," notes analysts at TMR.
Key Findings of the Market Study
- Offline leads the type of distribution channel for the sales of the contact lens, increasingly fueled by the growing popularity of multi-brand stores.
- Growth in the online distribution channel is also expected to gather pace through 2027.
- Among the various types, reusable held the leading share in the contact lenses market in 2017.

Key Impediments to Contact Lenses Market Players
The report on the contact lens market asserts that the number of contact lens wearers is unarguably growing; however, numerous factors have impeded the penetration of new contact lens technologies.
- A growing body of studies in developed markets reiterate the problem of behavioral non-compliance with contact lens wear and care practices. The complications associated with contact lens wear are primarily due to lack of hygiene awareness, and practices that expose wearer to infections
- Manufacturers in the contact lens market are grappling with attaining the correct trade-off between wearer comfort and functionality.
- Low and middle-income countries are still opening to the prospect of premium products. As a result, the scope of commercialization may be limited in these regions.
