The contact lenses market is expected to rise from USD 10,035.9 million in 2024 to USD 16,256.8 million by 2034. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.90% over the next decade.
Contact lenses are expected to see wider adoption this decade as manufacturers innovate with coatings, materials, and manufacturing processes to create more breathable, comfortable, and durable lenses. The aging population, an expanding segment in current demographics, increasingly requires vision correction. With people living longer and staying more active due to ongoing advancements in the medical sector, the demand for comfortable and convenient vision solutions, including contact lenses, is on the rise.
Sales of contact lenses are increasing due to the rising prevalence of myopia, especially among the population below the age of 30 years. The upward growth trajectory of the population in a quest for vision correction is creating a solid demand for contact lenses. Spectacles wearers are discarding traditional glasses and adopting contact lenses, especially those individuals who have active lifestyles and are fashion-forward.
