The fundus camera market has been gaining significant traction over the recent years owing to its increasing adoption in ophthalmic care centers and hospitals for retinal imaging. Fundus cameras help ophthalmologists examine the interior part of the eye including retina, optic disc and macula, which can help detect various retinal disorders at an early stage. These cameras provide clearer images of the fundus as compared to traditional ophthalmoscopy and are more cost-effective than newer technologies like optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Common disorders that necessitate the use of Fundus Camera Market Demand include age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, hypertensive retinopathy and retinal detachment. The increasing prevalence of diabetes and long-term complications like diabetic retinopathy have further propelled the demand for fundus cameras worldwide.
The global fundus camera market is estimated to be valued at US$ 407.01 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.4% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031.
