Increasing incidences of ocular diseases: a major market driver

The increasing incidences of ocular diseases such as diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, cataract, corneal scarring, AMD, retinitis, refractive error, keratitis, and blepharitis, is significantly driving the sales of OCT devices. The leading cause of blindness is diabetic retinopathy, which is a medical condition that damages delicate blood vessels of the retina and causes vision distortion. As the prevalence of diabetes increases, the diabetic retinopathy incidence proportionally increases. The demand for OCT for ophthalmology diagnosis is expected to increase due to the increasing number of AMD and diabetic retinopathy that can lead to blindness and visual impairment.
