Global Cataract Market: Overview
A cataract is an ocular disease in which the lens of an individual’s eye degrades progressively and turns opaque, resulting in blurred vision. If ignored, the condition can lead to vision loss. Cataracts progress slowly with age and people commonly do not realize that they are suffering from cataract as it grows very slowly and may not impede the vision immediately.
The key cause of a cataract can depend upon its type. There are still some common factors that are related to cataracts, including age, trauma, skin diseases, radiation, use of drugs, genetic factors and medicinal side effects. Various diseases such as diabetes, infections, congenital conditions, infections and other eye diseases also augment the threat of cataracts. It is diagnosed using tests such as dilated eye exam, visual acuity test, and ocular tonometry. The key preventative activities that could minimize the threat of cataract are quitting smoking and avoiding harmful radiation exposure.

The market of cataract is segmented on the basis of types of cataract, into age-related cataract, congenital cataract, secondary cataract, traumatic cataract, subcapsular cataract, cortical cataract and nuclear cataract. The global cataract market is also segmented on the basis of treatments, into surgeries and laser treatments. Surgeries include extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) surgery, intracapsular cataract extraction (ICCE) and phaco (phacoemulsification).

According to the United Nations’ Department of Economic and Social Affairs Population Division, the number of people above the age of 65 years is projected to grow from an estimated 524 mn in 2010 to approximately 1.5 bn in 2050. This is therefore likely to become the leading factor promoting a heavier demand for cataract treatments over the foreseeable future. According to the statistics provided by CataractSurgery.com, cataract is the leading cause of vision loss in people with age 55 years or above. Moreover, according to projected estimations of the U.S. National Eye Institute, the number of cataract diagnosed population would increase from approximately 24.4 mn in 2010 to 50.2 mn by the end of 2050. This rapid growth in cataract patients is expected to allow the global cataract market to growth at a very fast pace. However, the ignorance of preliminary symptoms and an overall lack of medical infrastructure in developing economies of the world are the key restraints of the market currently.
