Ophthalmology Devices Market Drivers and Opportunities
Advancements in Ophthalmology Devices Favor Market Growth
Virtual reality, 3D imaging, and Big Data and artificial intelligence (AI) are being used for data analysis in ophthalmology. These tools have made it possible to gain accurate and reliable results. Tools such as AI are being used in the screening of diabetic retinopathy, lesion detection, and disease progress monitoring (e.g., progress of age-related macular degeneration or macular edema). However, these tools are still under development as they are being evaluated for their suitability in diagnostic and prognostic applications in ocular pathologies. Minimally invasive surgeries such as LASIK (i.e., laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) surgery, femtosecond laser surgery, multi-wavelength diabetic retinopathy treatment, and ultrasound phacoemulsification are likely to increase the demand for ophthalmology devices, in turn, propelling the overall market growth.
