Growth Driver: Rising prevalence of eye diseases;
The number of people with major eye diseases is increasing across the globe, and vision loss is becoming a major public health concern. The growth in the aging population and increasing prevalence of chronic disorders such as diabetes and hypertension have increased the prevalence of eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and ocular hypertension (glaucoma). The number of blind individuals or those affected with low vision is also expected to increase substantially. According to the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB), in 2013, around 2 million people in the UK were living with vision loss, and this figure is expected to increase to 4.1 million by 2050. Currently, there are 146 million people across the globe with trachoma, of which 10 million suffer from trichiasis and need surgery to prevent corneal blindness and 4.9 million individuals are completely blind from trachomatous corneal scarring (Source: WHO).
According to a study by the NCBI, in India, the number of individuals with unilateral corneal blindness will rise to 10.6 million by the end of 2020. As per the same study, it was observed that 30.5% of the blindness was due to corneal diseases. Corneal blindness has substantially increased in the geriatric population, from 3% in 1997 to 14.7% in 2001. Major reasons for corneal disorders in the elderly population include corneal degenerations, trauma-induced infectious keratitis, and trachomatous keratopathy. In order to prevent corneal blindness, constant assessment of the burden of corneal blindness with a periodic review is necessary. Such a scenario will result in the demand for corneal implants, including artificial implants, in order to treat corneal diseases.
