Global Corneal Topographers Market Analysis
Overview
A corneal topographer is non-invasive scanning equipment that maps and examines the surface of the cornea. Topographer is a tool that describes the curvature and contour of the cornea in great detail. Since the refractive power of the eye is highly dependent on the cornea and general corneal health, measuring the surface of the cornea is critical for measuring vision clarity.
Corneal topography using topographers is used in cataract surgery (to examine post-surgical astigmatism), LASIK, and contact lens fitting. It also aids in detecting the Keratoconus suspect, incision placement, and intrastromal ring placement in keratoconus, as well as the study and diagnosis of corneal and ocular surface disorders like localized corneal scars, pterygium, and limbal dermoid. As a result, topographers play an important role in treating as well as diagnosing major corneal diseases.

Drivers
Rising incidences of people suffering from cataract associated with eye disorders are expected to augment growth of the global corneal topographers market during the forecast period. Furthermore, since corneal topographers are an important imaging instrument for evaluating pre and post cataract and refractive error surgery, the market is predicted to develop positively due to the growing incidence of cataract and refractive error illnesses throughout the world.
As per the World Health Organization’s 2017 factsheet, there are approximately 217 million individuals who have moderate to severe visual impairment, 253 million individuals worldwide who have visual impairment, and another 36 million of whom are blind. According to data, refractive errors are the leading cause of vision impairment and the second leading cause of vision loss globally, accounting for 43 percent of all vision problems.
Increased usage of corneal topographer as a result of worldwide and national initiatives to raise cataract awareness will assist improve cataract surgery. In 1999, the World Health Organization (WHO) and a Task Force of international NGOs (non-governmental organizations) collaborated to develop and promote ‘The Vision 2020- the right to sight,’ a shared agenda for global action with the goal of eliminating blindness globally by 2020.

Restraints
Complications and post-surgery mistakes associated with LASIK operations to correct refractive defect, on the other hand, may stifle the global corneal topographers market expansion. According to a research published by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2017, 45 percent of refractive error procedures result in some sort of mistake. Furthermore, some physicians favor alternative techniques over corneal topography, such as optical biometry and pachymetry, which may limit corneal development.
Regional Analysis
During the projected period, North America is likely to dominate the global corneal topographers market. The U.S. boasts one of the world’s largest populations of contact lens wearers. In 2017, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) estimated that 45 million people in the U.S. wore contact lenses. In the U.S., the mean lifespan of contact lens wearers is 31 years. With such a large user base for contact lenses, corneal topographers will be of the most service to ophthalmologists and opticians, boosting the global corneal topographers market in the region.
Furthermore, the market is projected to increase due to the growing demand for LASIK operations to cure myopia and presbyopia. This is due to the use of a corneal topographer in LASIK procedures to assess the extent to which corneal modifications are needed using a topographic map of the cornea. As per National Eye Institute figures from 2010, astigmatism, the underlying cause of refractive errors, affects around one out of every three individuals and can occur in conjunction with near- or farsightedness.
Due to the increasing number of cataract patients and corresponding rise in cataract procedures, Asia Pacific is projected to have favorable market expansion. According to a 2015 research published in Advanced Medical and Health Research, the overall prevalence of blindness is 1.1 percent, with cataract (62.6 percent) accounting for almost 9 million people.

Competitive Landscape
Major companies contributing in the global corneal topographers market are Bausch Health Companies, Inc., STAAR Surgical Company, Allergan, Inc., Abbott Laboratories, Alcon plc., Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Topcon Corporation, Essilor International SA, Ltd., NIDEK Co., and Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc.
Major players are concentrating their efforts on the development of newer topographers that are intended for use in specialized applications such as cataract surgery and contact lens fitting. Furthermore, products combining corneal topography with optical pachymetry, biometry, and other techniques for analyzing and measuring the corneal surface are being developed.
The iDESIGN System for LASIK was approved by the FDA in November 2017 for the treatment of hyperopia – both with and without astigmatism. The iDESIGN System saves time during operations since it can collect five distinct measures in a same capture sequence, including wavefront aberrometry, wavefront distortion, corneal topography, exact position, and pupillometry.
The FDA approved Topcon Medical System’s Aladdin Biometer with corneal topographer HW3.0 for distribution in the U.S. in January 2017. Lens thickness, central pachymetry, and a general toric IOL calculator are included in the new edition of this topographic system, which improves the device’s functionality.
The ORBSCAN 3 anterior segment scanner, which is the revised generation of the multifunctional ORBSCAN topographer, was introduced by Bausch + Lomb in 2016.
