What Is Driving The Ophthalmic Medical Lasers Market? Rising Incidence Of Ocular Disorders Fuels Growth In The Ophthalmic Medical Lasers Market
The rising incidence of ocular disorders is driving the demand for the ophthalmic medical lasers market. Ocular disorders are the ones that affect vision and eye health in patients of all ages and treatment with lasers helps reshape the eye cornea for better focus, which contributes to an improved vision. For instance, in December 2022, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based government agency, about 20.5 million Americans over the age of 40 have a cataract in at least one eye, or 17.2% of the population. It is anticipated that approximately 30 million people will develop cataracts by 2028. The rise in the incidence of ocular disease that requires laser treatment contributes to the growth of the ophthalmic medical lasers market.
What Is Driving The Ophthalmic Medical Lasers Market? Elderly Population Growth Fuels Ophthalmic Medical Lasers Market Expansion
