Nonetheless, there are some factors that impede the growth of this market, such as poor quality of healthcare infrastructure in emerging economies, shortage of healthcare insurance, and inadequate awareness amongst people. Furthermore, the report states that the increasing healthcare expenditure in emerging countries such as China and India is making healthcare facilities too expensive for the aging population and this is the reason why a significant proportion of the population are unable to make use of the basic healthcare services.
The report segments the market into three major types of devices, namely vision care devices, diagnostic devices, and surgery devices.
Vision care devices are expected to be the most extensively used devices in the forecast period. These devices are categorized into spectacle lenses and contact lenses. Amongst these, spectacle lenses are the most commonly utilized vision care ophthalmic devices. On the other hand, contact lenses are the most rapidly growing vision care ophthalmic devices, due to their greater convenience to the user and lack of a major change in the user’s visual appearance.
Surgery devices have been categorized into four major devices, namely glaucoma surgery devices, cataract surgery devices, vitreoretinal surgery devices, and refractive error surgery devices. Amongst these, cataract surgery devices are among the most prevalent type of devices.
