The global ophthalmic devices market size reached USD 28.6 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, the analyst expects the market to reach USD 39.7 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.52% during 2025-2033. The market is propelled by the expanding geriatric population, rising prevalence of eye ailments, and the growing medical tourism sector which is driving innovation and investment in advanced eye care technologies.
Ophthalmic devices are medical equipment used for surgical diagnosis and vision correction. They comprise contact lenses, contact lens care products, diagnostics, implants, intraocular lenses (IOLs), lasers, phacoemulsification systems, artificial tears, and surgical instruments. They are used to diagnose and cure ocular abnormalities or deficits, and other eye diseases. They aid in making the eye-treatment procedure more convenient for patients and ophthalmologists by reducing treatment time and providing high-quality eye care. At present, due to the rising prevalence of ophthalmic diseases, such as cataracts and glaucoma, there is an increase in the demand for ophthalmic devices across the globe.
This, coupled with the rising awareness about ophthalmic devices among individuals, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Additionally, there is an increase in the employment of micro-invasive glaucoma (MIGs) surgical implants for the treatment of mild to moderate glaucoma. In line with this, governments of several countries are undertaking initiatives to promote eye health, which is bolstering the market growth.
