Presbyopia Treatment Market
Presbyopia is a common age-related condition characterized by a gradual loss of near-focusing ability, typically becoming noticeable after age 40 and progressing between the ages of 40 and 60. This decline in near vision results from the natural aging process, where the lenses of the eyes lose elasticity due to age-related changes in the proteins within the lens, causing it to thicken, harden, and become less flexible. These changes impair the lens's ability to refract light rays properly, diminishing the eye's focusing capacity. Presbyopia can be categorized into several types, including incipient, functional, absolute, premature, and nocturnal presbyopia.
While aging is the primary risk factor for presbyopia, the condition can also manifest prematurely due to factors such as trauma, systemic diseases, cardiovascular conditions, or drug side effects. Early symptoms often include difficulty with prolonged close-up tasks and eye strain, which may worsen in dim light. Other common symptoms encompass delays in focusing at various distances, ocular discomfort, headaches, asthenopia, squinting, fatigue or drowsiness from near work, increased working distance, a need for brighter light when reading, and diplopia. Understanding these mechanisms and symptoms is crucial for the effective management and treatment of presbyopia.
Presbyopia Diagnosis
Diagnosing presbyopia involves a comprehensive eye examination by an ophthalmologist, including assessments of the retina, muscle integrity, refraction, slit-lamp evaluation, visual field, and visual acuity. An ophthalmoscope is used to examine the retina, optic disk, and choroid. Muscle integrity is assessed by observing the patient's ability to follow a moving object. Refractive tests determine how well light waves bend through the cornea and lens to identify the correct lens prescription. A slit-lamp exam provides a magnified view of the eye's anterior structures, while visual field tests measure peripheral vision, and visual acuity tests assess clarity at various distances. Pupil-dilating eye drops may be used, temporarily increasing light sensitivity. These evaluations ensure accurate diagnosis and overall ocular health.
Further details related to diagnosis are provided in the report…
Presbyopia Treatment
Treatment of presbyopia involves various options tailored to the patient's vocational and avocational needs, aiming to compensate for the eye's reduced ability to focus on nearby objects. Optical correction can be achieved through corrective eyeglasses (spectacle lenses) or contact lenses, and for those seeking more permanent solutions, refractive surgery or lens implants are viable options. Refractive surgical procedures include techniques such as Conductive Keratoplasty, LASIK, LASEK, and Photorefractive Keratectomy, which have become safer and more effective with advancements in technology. Additionally, current clinical management may involve off-label use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), parasympathetic agonists, miotic agents, and other tempering agents. Commonly used agents in these treatments include Pilocarpine, Carbachol, Aceclidine, Brimonidine, and Nepafenac. Each treatment option is considered based on the specific needs and conditions of the patient, providing a comprehensive approach to managing presbyopia.
Presbyopia affects a significant segment of the aging population, yet existing treatments often fall short in terms of cost and accessibility. Advanced surgical options are prohibitively expensive and typically not covered by insurance, creating a barrier for many individuals. There is an urgent demand for affordable, non-invasive solutions that cater to diverse socioeconomic backgrounds.
While topical agents like pilocarpine drops, including the pioneering VUITY, represent a step forward, they have not fully met expectations. The daily cost of approximately USD 3 for a 30-day supply, coupled with a lack of insurance coverage, renders them impractical for many. Real-world feedback and AbbVie’s reduction in marketing efforts underscore the need for more effective treatments with fewer applications and longer-lasting effects. Addressing these gaps is crucial for enhancing the quality of life for those affected by presbyopia.
Presbyopia Epidemiology
As the market is derived using a patient-based model, the Presbyopia epidemiology chapter in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by, Total Prevalent Cases of Presbyopia, Total Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Presbyopia, Age-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Presbyopia, Gender-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Presbyopia, and Severity-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Presbyopia, in the 7MM covering, the United States, EU4 countries (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain), United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.
- In the assessment done by DelveInsight, the estimated total prevalent cases of presbyopia in the 7MM were ~325 million in 2023.
- The highest total diagnosed prevalent cases of Presbyopia were accounted by the US in 2023 (~109 million), which is expected to show a rise in the future.
- Among the European countries, Germany had the highest diagnosed prevalent cases of presbyopia with ~32 million cases, followed by Italy, which had diagnosed prevalent population of ~24 million in 2023. On the other hand, Spain had the lowest diagnosed prevalent population (~18 million cases).
- Japan had ~50 million total diagnosed prevalent cases of Presbyopia in 2023, accounting for approximately 18% in 7MM.
- In 2023, in the US, the gender-specific diagnosed prevalent cases of presbyopia were highest for females (~60%), as compared to males (~40%), which is attributed to factors such as hormonal differences, ocular anatomy and physiology, lifestyle and occupational factors and others.
- The age-specific instances of presbyopia in the 7MM were highest for the age group 60–69 (~78 million cases), followed by the age group of less than 60 years (~77 million cases), 70–79 years (~69 million cases), and the age group =80 years (~53 million) in 2023.
- In 2023, presbyopia cases were further sub-segmented based on severity into mild and moderate to severe. Among the 7MM, the highest diagnosed prevalence was observed in moderate to severe, with ~212 million cases, compared to ~56 million mild cases.
