Product Definition:
Medical glasses and shields are devices that are worn by individuals in the medical field to protect their eyes from potential injuries. Medical glasses and shields can be made from a variety of materials, including plastic, metal, or glass. They are typically used to protect the eyes from debris or sharp objects that may come into contact with them during surgery or when handling hazardous materials.

Medical Glasses, also known as Eye Protection Equipment (EPE) or eye protection equipment is a category of eyewear designed to protect the wearers eyes from harmful rays. Medical glasses can be categorized into two types: Standard issue eyeglasses and custom made glasses.
Medical Shields:
A medical shield is a thin layer of specially designed material that is used to protect the sensitive part of the eye from harmful ultraviolet rays. The most common type of medical shields are made up of plastic and glass. Plastic shields are cheaper as compared to glass based ones but in turn, it has an advantage of causing more irritation to the eyes than glass based ones do.
Application Insights:
Based on application, the global medical glasses and shields market is segmented into hospitals and clinics, research institutions, and others. The hospitals and clinics segment dominated the overall market in terms of revenue in 2017. This is attributed to a high usage rate of shields during various procedures such as endoscopy or colonoscopy at hospitals & clinics. Moreover, increasing number of hospital beds across the globe coupled with rising geriatric population is further anticipated to propel demand for glass products over the forecast period.
The research institutions segment are expected to exhibit lucrative growth over the forecast period owing to an increase in R&D activities at these institutes coupled with government funding for specific equipment or devices used within laboratories throughout Latin America and Asia Pacific regions. For instance, according to a study published by National Health Statistics (NHS) in 2016; it was estimated that around 27% of lab workers wear some form of eye protection daily while conducting experiments within laboratories across U.S.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure, high adoption rate of advanced technologies coupled with rising prevalence and incidence of eye diseases are some factors driving the regional demand. In addition, growing preference for outpatient settings over inpatient settings is expected to further fuel the growth during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period owing to increasing medical tourism and favorable government initiatives pertaining to research funding for ophthalmology studies in emerging economies such as India and China. Moreover, an increase in per capita income levels coupled with rise in consumer awareness regarding quality treatment is also likely boost industry expansion over next eight years or so.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for medical glasses and shields from the healthcare sector as a result of rising incidences of eye disorders and vision problems.
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using medical glasses and shields among people, especially in developing countries. This is likely to boost the demand for these products in the coming years.
- Technological advancements in manufacturing processes that are resulting in innovative products with better features, such as scratch resistance and impact resistance, which is expected to fuel market growth over the forecast period.
