Asia Pacific Market to be Driven by Rise in Prevalence of Diabetes and High Adoption of Generic Drugs
In terms of revenue, North America dominated the global glaucoma therapeutics market in 2017. However, the region is estimated to lose market share in the near future, owing to loss of patents and emerging low cost generics. Asia Pacific held a major share of the market in 2017, attributed to high prevalence of diseases, increase in health care spending, and rise in geriatric population. The market in Asia Pacific is expected to expand at a high CAGR during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026. Large patient pool and rise in awareness about glaucoma are the key factors driving the glaucoma therapeutics market in the region. The booming medical tourism driven by rise in government support and incorporation of different schemes to avail better treatment for patients is also likely to propel the market in Asia Pacific. Increase in the number of localized manufacturers and strengthening of distribution network in Asia Pacific due to growing economy offer significant investment opportunities for market players.
