India Eye Drop Market Trends:

Growing Aging Population

Elderly individuals are more prone to age-related eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. These conditions require continuous management using medicated eye drops for treatment and symptom relief. With age, natural tear production decreases, leading to a higher prevalence of dry eye syndrome. Lubricating and artificial tear eye drops are widely used to alleviate discomfort and maintain eye health. Many seniors experience increased intraocular pressure, necessitating prescription eye drops for glaucoma management and vision preservation. Post-surgical eye care for cataract patients also contributes to the rising demand for specialized eye drops. The rising life expectancy is increasing the elderly population, further accelerating the India eye drop market growth. In March 2024, Roche launched Vabysmo in India to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME). This bispecific antibody targets Ang-2 and VEGF-A, reducing injection frequency and improving vision outcomes, enhancing retinal disease treatment accessibility. Growing awareness about geriatric eye health is prompting more regular checkups and ophthalmologist-recommended eye drop usage. Government healthcare initiatives focusing on senior citizens are supporting access to affordable ophthalmic treatments. Pharmaceutical advancements are introducing preservative-free and herbal eye drops, catering to the needs of elderly patients.

Rising Prevalence of Eye Disorders

The growing incidences of eye illnesses is significantly influencing the India eye drop market outlook. Increasing cases of dry eye syndrome, conjunctivitis, glaucoma, and cataracts are leading to higher demand for eye drops. Many individuals suffer from eye infections and allergies due to pollution and environmental factors. India accounts for approximately 25% of the world's visually impaired population, highlighting the urgent need for effective eye care solutions. Eye drops are essential for managing redness, irritation, and bacterial or viral infections effectively. The growing diabetic population is also contributing to higher cases of diabetic retinopathy and related conditions. Nearly 13% of diabetic individuals experience diabetic retinopathy, increasing the demand for specialized eye drops to manage intraocular pressure, inflammation, and post-surgical eye care. Prolonged screen exposure is further increasing the occurrence of digital eye strain and fatigue. Lubricating and artificial tear drops are widely used to alleviate dryness and discomfort caused by screens. Rising awareness about early diagnosis and treatment is encouraging people to opt for medicated eye drops.
