The uveal melanoma market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Uveal Melanoma Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2025-2035". Uveal melanoma refers to a rare type of cancer that develops in the melanin-producing cells of the uveal tract of the eye. The uvea is the central layer of the eye's wall, which includes the iris, choroid, and ciliary body. The most common symptoms associated with the ailment are blurred vision, irritation, pain, a reduction in the total field of vision, redness, bulging or displacement of the eye, a perception of flashes of light in the eye, double vision, etc. Individuals suffering from this condition may also experience a change in the shape of the pupil and metamorphopsia, a visual distortion in which a person sees straight lines as wavy and sections of the grid as blank. The diagnosis of uveal melanoma typically involves a comprehensive eye examination by an ophthalmologist, who will examine the eye using a specialized microscope called a slit lamp. Various imaging tests, such as ultrasound, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography, etc., are also utilized to evaluate the size and location of the tumor and to determine whether it has spread to other parts of the eye or surrounding tissues. Additionally, a biopsy may be performed to confirm the diagnosis of uveal melanoma and identify the specific characteristics of the tumor.
The rising cases of genetic conditions, which cause abnormalities in the DNA and uncontrollable growth of unhealthy cells in the eye, are primarily driving the uveal melanoma market. In addition to this, the increasing prevalence of numerous associated risk factors, such as advancing age, certain inherited skin disorders, exposure to ultraviolet light, etc., is also augmenting the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of immune checkpoint inhibitors that target and destroy gp100-expressing uveal melanoma tumor cells is creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, the escalating demand for proton therapy, which allows the delivery of potent radiation doses to the tumor with pinpoint accuracy while sparing surrounding healthy tissues, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. The therapy aids in preserving the patient's vision and lowers the risk of long-term side effects. Besides this, the emerging popularity of targeted therapies for gene mutations associated with the ailment, since they can limit the growth of cancerous cells and promote overall survival, is further expected to drive the uveal melanoma market in the coming years.
