Corneal Topography Systems Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Type of Product (Placido-Based Systems, Evaluation-Based Systems, Interferometric Systems, Others), By Application (Corneal Disorders, Cataract Surgery Evaluation, Contact Lens Fitting, Post-Refractive Surgery Evaluation, Post-Penetrating Keratoplasty), By End User (Hospitals, Clinics, Ambulatory Surgery Centers) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Corneal topography systems are also known as videokeratography or photokeratoscopy refers to a computerized test, non-invasive in nature, a medical imaging technique used for the mapping of the surface curvature of the cornea. Corneal topography systems are of critical importance because they map the surface of the cornea, which is responsible for two-thirds of the eye’s optical power.

Corneal topography systems provide the detailed descriptions of the various shape and curvature characteristics of the cornea, which enable corneal astigmatism illustrations, corneal pathologies detections, evaluation of the dry eye and contact lens fitting perfection. Corneal topography systems make several maps regarding the curvature of the cornea such as axial (mapping corneal power), tangential (mapping instantaneous changes to the cornea), refractive power and elevation maps.

When the corneal topography systems show an evenly rounded cornea, it implies an eye with a normal vision, but if the corneal topography systems show a too steep or too flat or uneven cornea, it means less than perfect vision. Corneal topography systems also help make vital decisions regarding surgical procedures such as LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileuses).

The recent product launches by key market leaders such as Johnson & Johnson Vision’s product offering of iDESIGN Refractive Studio is further expected to contribute to the corneal topography systems growth.

The global corneal topography systems market growth is anticipated, owing to a number of factors such as increased prevalence of eye disorders such as astigmatism, cataracts and corneal injuries & deformities, recent advances in technology, rising geriatric populace, increasing access to and adoption of advanced technologies, increasing incidences for diabetic individuals leading to greater eye diseases, rising demand for preventive medical care through regular eye examinations and increasing awareness regarding eye health and governmental initiatives.

According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO), cataracts more than 24.4 million individuals in the U.S. by the age of 40 and above and almost half of the American populace by the age of 75. In estimates published by the American Refractive Surgery Council (ARSC), the procedure of LASIK has a success rate of 99% achieving a 20/40 vision and 90% achieving a 20/20 vision. These trends combined with the other factors are expected to positively drive the global corneal topography systems market growth.

Some of the factors limiting the global corneal topography systems market growth are the limiting measurement scope of corneal topography systems, expensiveness of corneal topography systems and limited awareness regarding the technology.
