Ophthalmoscopes Market

The growing focus of key players in introducing a new product is expected to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period. For instance, in 2019, Nidek Co. Ltd launched Mirante Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope in Japan. The device is a multimodal fundus imaging platform, which combines high definition scanning laser ophthalmoscope and optical coherence tomography. Thus growing such technological advancement in ophthalmoscopes will favor the growth of the global ophthalmoscopes market. Growing involvement of government in preventing the cataract and blindness cases among the population is also accelerating the growth of the market. Government initiatives such as the National Program for Control of Blindness (NPCB) and Vision 2020 aims to eliminate preventable blindness at the national level.

Key players engaged in the global ophthalmoscopes market include Medline Industries, Inc., Heine USA Ltd., US Ophthalmic, Welch Allyn, Dino-Lite Europe, HONSUN Group, Rudolf Riester GmbH, IRIDEX Corporation, Zumax Medical Co., Ltd., Oscar Boscarol S.r.l., Suzhou Kangjie Medical Inc., NIDEK Inc., and KIRCHNER & WILHELM GmbH + Co. KG

Key Developments:

1.      In April 2021, Hillrom announced technological advances to its physical assessment tools with the launch of the new Welch Allyn PanOptic Plus Ophthalmoscope and the Welch Allyn MacroView Plus Otoscope.

2.      In August 2019, Nidek has announced the launch of the Mirante Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope. The Mirante is a multimodal fundus imaging platform that combines high definition SLO and OCT with ultra-widefield imaging.

 

North America is expected to lead the global ophthalmoscopes market and this is attributed to the increasing incidence of ophthalmic disease in the U.S. For instance, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2015, around 100 million U.S. population aged 18 years and older were diagnosed with diabetes or pre-diabetic. Moreover, according to the Glaucoma Research Foundation, in 2018, over 120,000 (9-12% of total blindness cases) population in the U.S were blind due to glaucoma disease.

Ophthalmoscopes, also known as external ophthalmoscopes, is an optical instrument that enables a medical professional to view inside the eye and various other facial structures with ophthalmoscopes. It is normally performed as a part of an external eye examination and can be performed as a part of a routine visual inspection. The basic definition of ophthalmoscopes is that it is an instrument that magnifies the field of vision
