Global Artificial Cornea Market Growth at 8.1% CAGR, Forecast 2022–2030
Straits Research has released a comprehensive report on the Artificial Cornea and Corneal Implant Market, detailing the industry's growth trajectory, key market drivers, and emerging trends. The global Artificial Cornea and Corneal Implant Market size was valued at USD 385 million in 2021 and is expected to expand significantly, reaching USD 718 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period 2022–2030.
Market Definition and Overview
The Artificial Cornea and Corneal Implant Market encompasses medical devices and biological solutions designed to restore vision in patients with corneal blindness or severe corneal diseases. Corneal implants, including human donor corneas and artificial corneas (keratoprosthesis), serve as essential treatment options for individuals suffering from conditions such as Fuchs' Dystrophy, Keratoconus, and Fungal Keratitis. With increasing advancements in biotechnology and regenerative medicine, artificial cornea implants are emerging as a viable alternative for patients who lack access to human donor corneas.
Latest Market Trends Driving Growth
1. Advancements in Artificial Cornea Technology
Innovations in biocompatible materials and nanotechnology have improved the safety and effectiveness of synthetic corneal implants, enhancing patient outcomes and expanding the scope of keratoprosthesis procedures.
2. Rising Demand for Corneal Transplants Due to Increasing Corneal Disorders
A growing number of corneal diseases, eye injuries, and age-related vision impairments are driving the demand for human and artificial cornea transplants, with an increasing preference for minimally invasive procedures.
3. Shortage of Human Donor Corneas
The global shortage of donor corneas is a key factor propelling research into artificial corneas, leading to greater adoption of keratoprosthesis solutions.
4. Integration of 3D Printing and Tissue Engineering
Emerging 3D bioprinting techniques are revolutionizing the field, allowing for the creation of customized corneal implants, improving patient-specific treatment approaches.
