The amblyopia market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Amblyopia Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Amblyopia, also known as "lazy eye," is a condition where the brain and eyes do not work together properly, leading to reduced vision in one or both eyes. It often begins in childhood with onset before the age of six. Amblyopia is characterized by various functional abnormalities in spatial vision, such as poor visual acuity, vernier acuity, contrast sensitivity function, spatial distortion, impaired contour detection, abnormal spatial interactions, etc. Individuals suffering from this disease may experience a tendency to bump into objects on one side as well as a wandering eye, poor depth perception, squinting or shutting an eye, head tilting, and double vision. The diagnosis of amblyopia is based on a thorough evaluation of the patient's symptoms and medical history. The healthcare professional may perform an eye examination to detect vision clarity, eye muscle strength, and eye focus. Additionally, a corneal light reflex test that checks for eye alignment by demonstrating light reflection from the cornea of the eyes is used to confirm the diagnosis.
The increasing prevalence of vision-obstructing disorders, such as refractive error and strabismus, is primarily driving the amblyopia market. In addition to this, the escalating usage of novel medications, including GABA antagonists and decarboxylase inhibitors, to improve visual acuity and visual-evoked potential amplitudes is further creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of digital imaging technologies, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus photography, to diagnose amblyopia is also bolstering the market growth. These technologies can provide detailed images of the eye and allow for more accurate diagnosis and monitoring of the condition. Additionally, several government bodies are introducing screening programs, which involve visual acuity tests and other assessments in order to identify amblyopia in children at an early age. This, in turn, is acting as a significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the increasing utilization of VR training for improving visual processing and coordination in amblyopic patients is also propelling the market growth. Besides this, the emerging popularity of patching coupled with binocular treatments, such as I-Bit, which improves best corrected visual acuity in the amblyopic eye, is expected to drive the amblyopia market in the coming years.
