What Is The Visual Impairment Market Size And Growth?
The market size for visual impairment has seen a marked increase in recent years. From $4.06 billion in 2024, it is predicted to rise to $4.34 billion in 2025 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. Factors behind the growth during the historic period include an upsurge in age-related eye diseases, an escalating incidence of diabetic retinopathy among the elderly, a rise in glaucoma and macular degeneration cases worldwide, a wider acceptance of vision screening programs in educational institutions, and an escalading number of work-related eye injuries in the industrial domain.

The market size for visual impairment is projected to experience robust growth in the coming years, expanding to $5.60 billion in 2029 at a 6.6% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). This surge in the projected period is owed to a rising elderly population prone to vision loss, an increasing demand for low-vision electronic aids, bigger health care investments in up-and-coming economies, a growing occurrence of myopia in children and teenagers, and the enhanced availability of wearable devices for vision improvement. Key trends during the forecast period comprise the emergence of multilingual voice assistants, the development of navigation apps mobile-based, the incorporation of haptic feedback systems and machine learning algorithms, and the innovation of voice-activated devices.

What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For Visual Impairment Market?
The visual impairment market's growth is anticipated to be fuelled by the increasing rate of diabetes. Diabetes is a long-term metabolic disorder marked by elevated blood sugar levels due to defects in insulin production, insulin function, or both. This surge in diabetes is mainly attributed to unhealthy lifestyles, including poor eating habits, lack of physical activity, and heightened stress levels, leading to obesity and insulin resistance. Visual impairment often serves as a preliminary sign of diabetes-related complications, thus encouraging timely detection and treatment to avoid more health problems. Conditions like diabetic retinopathy usually manifest before any other noticeable symptoms, allowing for prompt medical attention and improved disease control. For instance, the British Diabetic Association, Diabetes UK, reported in April 2023 that the number of people in the UK with a confirmed diagnosis of diabetes has reached 4.3 million, an increase of about 149,000 compared to the previous year. Furthermore, over 2.4 million individuals across the country are currently considered at a high risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Consequently, the increasing incidence of diabetes is stimulating the expansion of the visual impairment market.
