Market Overview:
The global optical lens blockers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for ophthalmic devices and rising prevalence of eye disorders. By type, the automatic type segment is expected to dominate the global optical lens blockers market during the forecast period. This segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2018 to 2030. By application, hospitals are expected to account for the largest share of the global optical lens blockers market in 2018, followed by clinics and others segments respectively.
Product Definition:
An optical lens blocker is a device used to block or attenuate light passing through an optical system, such as a lens. The purpose of an optical lens blocker is typically to improve the contrast or brightness of an image by reducing glare and unwanted scattered light.
Automatic Type:
Automatic type is a technology that enables the production of optical lenses with high precision and uniformity. It uses computers to control the lens-making process, which helps in reducing human errors and provides better quality lenses. The technology has been around for more than two decades but its commercialization dates back to only 2010's. However, it gained significant traction since 2014 owing to increased demand for contact lens wearers as well as growing adoption by optometrists/ophthalmologists worldwide.
Manual Type:
The manual type is a device that can be used to block the light from entering the optical lens. It’s major application includes in front of the camera when it’s turned off or in back of the camera when it’s activated.
Application Insights:
The others application segment held the largest share of over 70.0% in 2017. The other applications include optical shops, diagnostic centers and imaging centers. Optical lens blockers are widely used in these facilities as they help prevent patients from transferring infections to others by directly touching or wearing their shoes on hospital floors. These optical lens blockers can also be used to reduce the spread of infection through airborne transmission, which is a major concern for healthcare professionals and institutions at present.
Hospitals were the largest revenue-generating segment for both automatic and manual type Optical Lens Blocker (OLB) products in 2017 owing to factors such as high usage rates across various departments within hospitals coupled with an increasing number of patients suffering from eye diseases due to improper hygiene practices leading towards increased demand for OLBs among hospitals worldwide.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure and high adoption of advanced technologies. In addition, increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries is anticipated to drive regional growth over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period due to rising geriatric population and improving economic conditions in emerging countries such as China and India. Moreover, growing medical tourism industry will also boost product demand in this region. For instance, according to a study published by The Lancet Global Health Journal in 2016, India had 58% increase in medical tourists from 2010 to 2014 with a total expenditure of USD X billion on health care services alone during that year.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for ophthalmic surgeries: The global ophthalmic surgery market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2016 to 2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of eye disorders, rising awareness about eye care, and technological advancements in the field of ophthalmology. Ophthalmic lens blockers are used in various types of surgeries such as cataract surgery, corneal transplant surgery, and glaucoma surgery.
- Growing demand for contact lenses: Contact lenses are becoming increasingly popular due to their convenience and comfortability. The global contact lens market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9% from 2016 to 2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of vision problems, growing awareness about the benefits of contact lenses, and technological advancements in the field of optometry. Lens blockers are used during various types of contact lens procedures such as refractive laser procedures (LASIK) and orthokeratology (ortho-k).
- Rising geriatric population: The geriatric population is growing at a rapid pace due to advances in medical technology and healthcare services that have extended life expectancy around the world. By 2020, there will be more than 1 billion people over 60 years old worldwide; this number is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050 [1]. As people age, they are more likely to develop age-related eye diseases such as cataracts, gl
