Europe Ophthalmic Drugs Market Size (2021 to 2026)
The size of the European Ophthalmic Drugs market size is estimated to worth USD 11.06 billion by 2026 and USD 8.71 billion in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 4.90% during the forecast period. It captures 25% of the global market share.
The rise in the prevalence of eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataract, macular degeneration, and the spike in demand for ophthalmic medications and increased investment in R&D activities by various healthcare businesses are the main drivers driving the European ophthalmic drugs market. Future growth is expected to be driven by increased laser procedures, digitalization of the workplace, rising incidence of eye-related illnesses and an aging population, increased burden of diabetes and other comorbidities, adverse effects of other medications, and a promising pipeline for dry eye disease. Hereditary ophthalmic diseases, neurovascular retinal abnormalities, and retinoblastoma benefit from gene therapy for diagnosis and treatment. As a result, further research is needed to optimize and broaden gene therapy's applicability across ophthalmic diseases. In recent years, drug delivery methods in ophthalmic treatment have seen significant technical advancements, which are expected to boost the market's growth.
Multiple firms are progressively focused on creating novel therapies, and the European ophthalmology medication and device market is projected to increase significantly in the next few years. The market is likely to be driven in the future by a significant number of eye disorders, the availability of new and advanced technology, and patient desire for non-invasive treatment. Furthermore, ophthalmic pharmaceutical firms are pursuing strategic initiatives like collaborations, acquisitions, and partnerships to extend their product pipeline with new clinical-stage opportunities, which is expected to boost the market.
The significant risk involved with eye surgery and strict restrictions may limit the market's expansion. In addition, long and costly drug approval procedures, insufficient insurance coverage of ophthalmologists' services, the expiration of branded drug patents, and disruption in the supply chain of ophthalmology drugs due to the impact of covid-19 are factors that could slow the growth of the European ophthalmology drugs market.
During the forecast period, the market growth is likely to be limited by the time it takes to manufacture and manufacture ophthalmic drugs and the adverse effects associated with ophthalmic drugs. In addition, the ophthalmology business has a significant challenge in the form of a lack of health insurance among the public or insurance that includes all types of IOLs or contact lenses in this nation. The rising cost of healthcare and the FDA’s strict guidelines for drug clearance are limiting the market's expansion.
