Rising population with visual impairment & blindness due to different eye conditions, and increasing geriatric population who are more prone to visual impairment are some of the major factors responsible for growth of the global visual impairment market.

Also, as per National Federation of the Blind, in 2016, an estimated 3,171,100 people over the age of 65 years and older were reported to have visual disability in the U.S.
The increasing prevalence of visual impairment & blindness is a major factor responsible for growth of the global visual impairment market. For instance, as per World Health Organization (WHO), at least 1 billion people had a near or distance vision impairment globally in 2019.
Furthermore, increasing prevalence of eye disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, refractive error, glaucoma, cataract, and age-related macular degeneration is projected to increase the number of visually impaired people globally, thereby fueling demand for assistive technologies in visual impairment. This will, in turn, drive growth of the global visual impairment market. For instance, as per World Glaucoma Association, it is estimated that 79.6 million individuals will have glaucoma in 2020. This number is likely to increase to 111.8 million individuals in 2040.
