Corneal Edema – Epidemiology Forecast – 2034
Key Highlights
The diagnosed prevalent cases of corneal edema across the 7MM experienced a notable increase starting from 2022, and this trend is expected to persist until 2034. This escalating pattern indicates a mounting burden of corneal edema on healthcare systems, emphasizing the critical need for implementing effective management strategies and interventions to mitigate the impact of this condition.
DelveInsight's 2022 analysis underscored dystrophic causes as the predominant contributors to diagnosed prevalent cases of corneal edema in the 7MM, yet anticipates dynamic shifts in etiologies over time, encompassing mechanical and inflammatory causes as well.
DelveInsight’s “Corneal Edema – Epidemiology – 2034” report delivers an in-depth understanding of the Corneal Edema, historical and forecasted epidemiology in the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan.

Disease Understanding and Diagnostic Algorithm
Corneal Edema Overview
Corneal edema, marked by the swelling of the cornea due to fluid accumulation, can stem from diverse causes like trauma, inflammation, or underlying conditions such as Fuchs' dystrophy. Symptoms include blurred vision and light sensitivity. Pathologically, it involves alterations in the kidney's glomeruli, affecting filtration and leading to protein leakage in urine, notably albumin. Treatment decisions hinge on factors like edema severity, underlying causes, patient symptoms, and potential risks and benefits of interventions.
Corneal Edema Diagnosis
Diagnosis of corneal edema involves a comprehensive eye examination, including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, corneal pachymetry, and evaluation of visual acuity. Early detection and appropriate management are crucial in preventing complications and preserving vision.

Corneal Edema Epidemiology
The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by the Total Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Corneal Edema and the Etiology-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Cases of Corneal Edema in the 7MM covering the United States, EU4 (Germany, France, Italy, and Spain) and the United Kingdom, and Japan from 2020 to 2034.
In 2022, the diagnosed prevalent population of Corneal Edema in the US was around 1 million which is expected to increase by 2034.
DelveInsight's 2022 estimates indicate that the primary cause of diagnosed prevalent cases of corneal edema in the US was attributed to dystrophic causes, with the highest number of cases. It is anticipated that there will be shifts in these cases over the course of the study period.
KOL Views
To gaze into the epidemiology insights of the real world, we take KOLs and SMEs’ opinions working in the domain through primary research to fill the data gaps and validate the secondary research. Industry Experts were contacted for insights on Corneal Edema evolving treatment landscape, patient reliance on conventional therapies, patient therapy switching acceptability, along with challenges related to accessibility, including KOL from University of Utah Hospital; Department of Ophthalmology, Columbia University, New York; Department of Ophthalmology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, Department of Ophthalmology, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons; Department of Ophthalmology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota; and others.
DelveInsight’s analysts connected with 50+ KOLs to gather insights; however, interviews were conducted with 15+ KOLs in the 7MM. Their opinion helps understand and validate current disease prevalence, gender involved with the disease, diagnosis rate, and diagnostic criteria.
