Global Phoropters Market Size Study & Forecast, by Product Type (Manual, Automated), By by End User (Hospitals, Ophthalmic Clinics, Others), and Regional Analysis, 2023-2030
Global Phoropters Market is valued at approximately USD 140.3 million in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 4.4% over during the forecast period 2023-2030. A Phoropter is an essential ophthalmic instrument containing cylinders, prisms, and lenses, facilitating the measurement of refractive errors in the eye. Refractive errors are prevalent vision issues that hinder light from properly focusing on the retina. These errors include myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism, and presbyopia. Eye care professionals utilize the Phoropter during comprehensive eye examinations to precisely determine eye prescriptions, ensuring optimal visual acuity and correction for patients. The Phoropters Market is expanding because of factors such as the growing healthcare expenditure, rising aging ageing population, an increasing number of optometrists, and surge in the number of initiatives made by government entities. As per the General Optical Council 2021 report, there were 28,480 optometrists, dispensing opticians, student optometrists, and student dispensing opticians are registered in the United Kingdom, which is a 2.80% growth from 2019.
In addition, the rising incidence of refractive errors is acting as a catalyzing factor for the demand of for phoropters fueled by growing awareness and timely diagnosis initiatives globally, aimed at alleviating the economic burden associated with such conditions. The escalating number of individuals seeking eye examinations is expected to bolster demand for ophthalmic testing devices. Moreover, the rising prevalence of chronic conditions like such as diabetes mellitus intensify intensifies refractive errors, with acute hyperglycemia linked to myopic refraction, as per studies published in the Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science in March 2023. Consequently, the increasing incidence of comorbidities is anticipated to expand the patient pool for refractive disorders, driving demand for routine eye checkups and the need for devices to measure refractive errors, thereby fostering market growth. Moreover, the growing awareness regarding eye health and preventive care, as well as the rising technological integration and automation present various lucrative opportunities over the forecast years. However, the high costs associated with automated devices and the limited reimbursement policies are challenging the market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Phoropters Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 owing to the rising prevalence of refractive errors, growing advancements in phoropter technology, and increasing prevalence of ophthalmic disorders. Whereas, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR over the forecast years. The increase in aging ageing population, growing healthcare expenditure, as well as rising public awareness about the importance of eye health and routine eye examinations are significantly propelling the market demand across the region.
