Ophthalmoplegia: Introduction

Ophthalmoplegia is the weakness of the eye muscles, affecting one or more than one of the six muscles holding the eye in place and controlling its movement.

People suffering from ophthalmoplegia may have blurred or double vision, and even misaligned eyes in some cases. It is mostly diagnosed through MRI or CT scans.

Ophthalmoplegia Market Analysis

The incidence of ophthalmoplegia is slightly higher in people affected with diabetes. Since the prevalence of diabetes is growing due to the changes in modern lifestyles and unhealthy dietary practices, the ophthalmoplegia market demand has also observed an upswing. Along with diabetes, patients affected by multiple sclerosis or Graves' disease are also at a risk of developing the condition.

With the rising preference for minimally invasive surgical interventions, silicone sling procedure is commonly performed as an ophthalmoplegia treatment. This procedure is used to treat drooping eyelids, a critical symptom of the disease. It is performed with the help of a Seiff silicone suspension and the silicone is guided in the muscle through a stab incision. This procedure offers multiple advantages like early recovery, less surgical time, and no multiple incisions when compared to other methods.

Apart from surgical interventions and drugs like tetracycline, corticosteroid treatment, and botulinum toxin, vitamins are also used quite frequently. However, adopting traditional Chinese medicine as a complementary and alternative method, acupuncture is also being investigated as a potential therapeutic method. With a vision to cater to a diverse set of patients, scientists are looking into various approaches, which are poised to boost the ophthalmoplegia market value in the forecast period.
