U.S. Eye Care Services Market Trends
The U.S. eye care services market size was estimated at USD 54.57 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.37% from 2025 to 2033. Market growth is attributed to the increasing number of individuals experiencing eye-related issues, a rapidly increasing aging population, advancements in technology, and heightened awareness regarding eye care.
As per the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report published in May 2024, nearly 12 million people aged 40 years and over in the U.S. are suffering with vision impairment, which includes 1 million with blindness. Moreover, the rising occurrence of vision problems, particularly vision impairment and presbyopia, offers substantial opportunities for the industry.
The country is experiencing a rapid increase in the elderly population, particularly those over 65. Age-related eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy are more prevalent in this group, driving the need for regular eye exams and treatments. According to a CDC report published in May 2024, approximately 93 million adults in the U.S. are at a high risk for significant vision loss, yet only about half of them have seen an eye doctor in the past year. This is crucial because early detection often prevents or postpones vision deterioration. By 2050, the economic burden of major vision issues is projected to escalate to USD 373 billion.
The widespread use of digital devices across all age groups has led to a surge in digital eye strain and related vision problems. This trend has created increased demand for blue light filtering lenses, regular eye checkups, and specialized care for digital eye strain.
