Market Insights and Analyst View:

Eye allergy treatment includes over-the-counter medications and prescription drugs used to alleviate symptoms such as redness, itching, tearing, and swelling of the eyes. Some of the commonly used products include antihistamine eye drops, mast cell stabilizers, and combination therapies. Primary types of eye allergy are seasonal or perennial allergic conjunctivitis, vernal keratoconjunctivitis, atopic keratoconjunctivitis, and contact allergic conjunctivitis. The increasing prevalence of eye allergies worldwide and the availability of over-the-counter solutions favor the eye allergy treatment market growth.

Growth Drivers:

Eye allergies, also known as allergic conjunctivitis, are triggered by pollen, dust, animals, and mold. Rising levels of air pollution have contributed to the growing incidences of eye allergies. In addition, changes in lifestyle and dietary habits, increased exposure to allergens, increased screen time leading to eye strain, and increased susceptibility to eye discomfort have contributed to a substantial rise in eye allergic reactions among the global population.

As per a study titled “A Contemporary Look at Allergic Conjunctivitis,” published in 2020, allergic eye disease is a common issue among the North American population. It affects nearly 40% of the population, and this number is growing. Half of the US population who suffer ocular allergy symptoms require medication for relief. Still, only a fraction of them use prescription medications, making the development of these new treatments especially attractive.

Eye allergy treatment includes products and solutions that are used to treat and manage allergies affecting the eyes. Treatment includes over-the-counter medications and prescription drugs used to alleviate symptoms such as redness, itching, tearing, and swelling of the eyes. Some commonly used products include antihistamine eye drops, mast cell stabilizers, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The growth in the number of people experiencing eye allergies leads to a higher demand for treatment options. This increased the demand for treatment choices, thereby driving the eye allergy treatment market growth.

The eye allergy treatment market trends include the development of combination therapies that will favor the growth of the market in the future.

In 2022, North America captured a significant share of the market. In 2022, the US held the largest share of the market in the region. The market growth in North America is attributed to the availability of modern healthcare infrastructure, the strong presence of key market players, the growing number of eye allergies and dry eye diseases, and the introduction of cutting-edge medications. According to Baptist Health, nearly 50 million Americans have some form of seasonal allergy. About 30% of all adults and 40% of all children experience allergic reactions affecting eyes, eyelids, and tear ducts.

A dry eye can lead to eye allergies, which will consequently result in dry eye disease. Dry eye disease is a common, although underdiagnosed disorder in the US. According to the National Health and Wellness Survey data published in 2020, 6.8% of the adult population in the US was diagnosed with dry eye. According to an article, ‘Risk factors for ocular surface damage in Mexican patients with dry eye disease: a population-based study,’ published in 2019, nearly 58% of people complained about dry eyes.

Pharmaceutical companies are improving access to specialized treatments, such as allergy-relieving eye drops, to expand their reach in the region. From March 2022, Allergan’s LASTACAFT (alcaftadine ophthalmic solution 0.25%) was available to Americans with ocular allergies without a prescription. Following the recent US Food and Drug Administration approval of a complete prescription to over-the-counter switch, the original patented prescription-strength formulation of LASTACAFT can be found online and in retail stores where OTC eye drops are sold. Thus, the factors mentioned above propel the eye allergy treatment market in the region.
