How has the prescription lens market size evolved in recent years?

There has been a substantial expansion in the prescription lens market in the past few years. Estimations predict it will increase from $46.09 billion in 2024 to $49.02 billion in 2025, demonstrating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. This progression through the historical period may be credited to factors such as improved understanding and identification of vision concerns, the prevalence of computers and smartphones leading to greater knowledge and need for lenses, the emergence of fashion and designer spectacles, the rise of online sellers and direct-to-consumer labels, and heightened identification and insight into vision issues.

What are the predictions for the prescription lens market size in the coming years?

The prescription lens market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $62.14 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increased public awareness and education about eye health, the growth of online retail channels, economic conditions and disposable income levels, availability and extent of insurance coverage for vision care and eyewear, increased urbanization and prolonged use of digital screens. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), increasing demand for lenses that filter blue light from screens, advancements in photochromic lenses, improved anti-fog technologies, use of digital eye strain diagnostics and 3D printing.

What key factors are fueling the growth of the prescription lens market?

The surge in instances of vision impairment is projected to boost the expansion of the prescription lens market. Vision impairment encompasses conditions that impact the eyes, spanning from fairly common ailments like partial vision loss and total blindness, to more severe ones such as macular degeneration. Factors like heightened screen time, use of digital devices, and aging demographics are contributing to the escalating prevalence of conditions like digital eye strain, myopia, and age-related macular degeneration. Prescription lenses are instrumental in rectifying visual impairments like myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia, as they refract light in a way that allows it to properly focus on the retina, subsequently enhancing visual acuity and decreasing strain. For instance, a study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a U.S.-based global resource for scientific study, in May 2023, revealed that about 200 million individuals globally were affected by age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in 2020. The said report estimates that by 2040, the number of individuals suffering from this condition will increase to roughly 288 million. As such, the rising incidents of vision impairment are fueling the expansion of the prescription lens market.
