Vitreous tamponades are substances injected into the vitreous cavity of the eye during retinal detachment surgery to stabilize the retina. These help flatten the retina against the inside surface of the eye. Some commonly used vitreous tamponades include silicone oils, perfluoro propane gases, and sulfur hexafluoride gases. Increasing prevalence of ophthalmic complications like retinal detachment and rising number of eye surgeries globally can drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Market Dynamics:
Global vitreous tamponades market growth is driven by rising geriatric population, increasing incidence of retinal detachment, and growing number of eye surgeries. According to the United Nations, the number of people aged 65 years and above is projected to increase from 727 million in 2020 to 1.5 billion by 2050. The elderly people are more prone to developing retinal detachment due to age-related degeneration of tissues and lenses in the eyes. Moreover, growing awareness about available treatments and favorable reimbursement policies in developed countries can offer opportunities for vitreous tamponades market growth. However, high cost of retinal surgeries and stringent regulations for product approval can hamper the market growth.
