The global persistent epithelial defect management market is projected to reach a valuation of USD 8.5 billion in 2023, with significant growth anticipated over the next decade. According to Future Market Insights, the market is expected to expand at an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18%, reaching approximately USD 44.49 billion by 2033.
This remarkable growth is attributed to the rising prevalence of ocular surface disorders, increasing awareness about innovative treatment methodologies, and advancements in medical technologies. As healthcare providers focus on improving patient outcomes and quality of life, the demand for effective management solutions for persistent epithelial defects is expected to escalate.
Persistent epithelial defects (PEDs) result from the failure of rapid re-epithelialization and closure within 10-14 days after a corneal injury, even with standard supportive treatment. In recent years, PED awareness has increased with increased research activities from various spectrums of ophthalmology research. However, the actual frequency of PED is not known as of now, but some studies have estimated the frequency based on the causative occurrence of the disease with underlying conditions.
Some of the symptoms of PEDs are loss of corneal epithelial cells, delayed epithelialization post-injury, nonhealing epithelial defect, and others which can be commonly due to Epithelial/limbal, inflammatory disease, Neurotrophic, mechanical causes, and others.
The multi-layered corneal epithelium acts as a protective barrier to infectious agents via tight junctions between neighboring cells, and it maintains its smooth optical surface by constantly regenerating cells in the basal cell layer. Disruptions in this protective layer can render the eye susceptible to infection, stromal ulceration, perforation, scarring, and decreased visual acuity.
It covers the details of conventional and current medical therapies and diagnoses available in the persistent epithelial defect (PED) market to treat the condition. It also provides country-wise treatment guidelines and algorithms across the United States, Europe, and Japan.
Prominent Growth Drivers Influencing Persistent Epithelial Defect Management Market
Increased Partnerships and Collaborations
The increasing partnerships and collaborations between numerous companies boost market growth. For instance, in October 2017, Bio-Tissue entered a strategic agreement with Optima Pharmazeutische GmbH, a pharmaceutical company that offers otorhinolaryngology, ophthalmology, and pneumology products.
