Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) Epidemiology Forecast to 2030 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) Epidemiology Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report delivers an in-depth understanding of the VKC, historical and forecasted epidemiology as well as the VKC trends in the global pharmaceutical markets i.e., the United States, EU5 (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK), Japan, MEA (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE), China, and Russia.

VKC Epidemiology Perspective

The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by Total Prevalent Population of VKC, Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Gender-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Type-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Severity-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, and Age-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC scenario of VKC in the global market from 2017 to 2030.

Epidemiology Segmentation

• The increasing population and rising prevalence of VKC generates a large patient population in the global market. In 2017, a total of 4,752,356 patients were affected by VKC in the global market.
• China contributes the largest share among EU-5, and Japan, with 2,248,706 cases in 2017.
• Egypt contributes the largest share among MEA regions, with 715,837 cases in 2017.
• The total prevalent population of VKC in Russia was observed to be 859,969 cases in 2017.
• The total diagnosed prevalent population of VKC was 2,943,057 in the global market.
• The prevalence of VKC was observed more in males as compared to females. Out of the total prevalent population of 48,982 cases in the US for VKC, 41,634 cases and 7,347 cases were contributed by males and females, respectively.
• Clinically, VKC can be divided into three subtypes: palpebral, bulbar, and mixed presentations. Disease severity seems milder in bulbar VKC, leading some to suspect that it is the early presentation of a spectrum of disease. Out of the total diagnosed cases of VKC in the US, 23,511 cases were of palpebral form, 21,552 cases were of bulbar form, and 3,919 cases were of mixed presentation.
• Based on the severity, VKC is being categorized into three groups, i.e., mild, moderate, severe, and very severe. In 2017, mild, moderate, severe, and very severe diagnosed cases of VKC accounted for 17,584, 19,887, and 11,511 in the US.
• The publisher's epidemiology model for VKC estimates that out of the total diagnosed population of 48,982 cases in the US for VKC, 41,282 cases and 7,700 cases were contributed by children and adolescent (0-20 years), and adults (>20 years), respectively.

Scope of the Report

• The report covers the descriptive overview of VKC, explaining its causes, signs and symptoms, pathophysiology, and histopathology.
• The report provides insight into the global historical and forecasted patient pool covering the United States, EU5 (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK), Japan, MEA (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE), China, and Russia.
• The report assesses the disease risk and burden and highlights the unmet needs of VKC.
• The report helps to recognize the growth opportunities in the global market with respect to the patient population.
• The report provides the segmentation of the disease epidemiology for the global market by Total Prevalent Population of VKC, Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Gender-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Type-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, Severity-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC, and Age-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of VKC.
