The keratoconjunctivitis market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Keratoconjunctivitis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Keratoconjunctivitis is a medical term that refers to the inflammation of the cornea and conjunctiva, the clear tissues covering the front of the eye and the inside of the eyelids, respectively. It can be a serious condition, potentially leading to vision loss. The symptoms of this illness can vary based on the severity and cause of the disease. Some common indications of the ailment include redness of the eye, pain or discomfort, photophobia, excessive tearing or watery eyes, blurred or hazy vision, a foreign body sensation in the eye, discharge from the eyes, etc. The diagnosis of keratoconjunctivitis is mainly made on the basis of the patient's medical history, clinical features, and a comprehensive eye examination. The healthcare provider will conduct viral cultures or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests to identify the specific pathogen responsible for the infection. Additionally, numerous special studies, such as tear breakup time or Schirmer's test, may be performed to quantify tear production and stability in patients. In certain severe or atypical cases, a tissue biopsy is utilized for laboratory analysis and to rule out other underlying causes of the disease.
The increasing prevalence of eye disorders, like blepharitis and meibomian gland dysfunction, which can lead to inadequate production of the oily layer of tears, causing them to evaporate faster, is primarily driving the keratoconjunctivitis market. In addition to this, the rising incidences of exposure to dry or windy climates, air conditioning, and heating systems that can cause discomfort in the eyes are also creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of artificial tears to aid in the healing process of the cornea and conjunctiva by keeping the ocular surface moist and supporting the repair of damaged tissues is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the inflating application of topical steroids, since they suppress the inflammatory response in the eye to minimize redness, swelling, and discomfort associated with the condition, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of punctal plugs, which are tiny devices inserted into the tear ducts of the eyes to retain moisture on the eye's surface, is expected to drive the keratoconjunctivitis market during the forecast period.
