ESOMAR-certified consulting firm Future Market Insights’ report, projects a healthy growth, for optical coherence tomography (OCT) market. As per the report, the market is forecast to reach a valuation of US$ 1349.09 Mn over the forecast period of 2021 and 2031.

Optical Coherence Tomography Equipment Market

Growing application of OCT in ophthalmology across China, the U.K., Germany and Japan will bolster the demand of optical coherence tomography across the globe.

As per the FMI’s analysis, the optical coherence tomography market across Japan and China is anticipated to expand at over 9.8% and 4.6%, respectively in 2021. Growing prevalence of eye related disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and others will improve the adoption of OCT imaging systems.

Development of advanced OCT imaging systems coupled with increasing government & private organizations initiatives for eye care programs across the globe are propelling the adoption of OCT imaging systems.

Growing awareness and increasing innovation for the advanced OCT devices for the treatment of skin cancer and eye diseases have urged the manufacturers to incorporate real-time data for better outcomes, expanding their existing product ranges.

Based on the aforementioned factors, the OCT market is slated to expand at a robust pace of over 6.7% CAGR during the assessment period of 2021 and 2031.
