Summary

Overview
Global corneal topographers market reached US$ YY million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ YY million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of YY% during the forecast period 2023-2030.
Corneal topography is also referred to as photokeratoscopy and videokeratoscopy. It is a technique that is used to map the curved surface of the cornea. This can help measure the quality of vision and also assist in LASIK surgery and the fitting of contact lenses. This procedure is known as non-invasive and painless to the patient. The test produces a series of color-coded maps that are used to diagnose and manage various eye conditions.
Corneal topography is known to produce a detailed, visual description of the shape and power of the cornea. This type of analysis provides with very fine details regarding the condition of the corneal surface. These details are especially used to diagnose, monitor, and treat various types of eye conditions. They are also used in fitting contact lenses and for planning surgery, including laser vision correction. For laser vision correction the corneal topography map is used in conjunction with other tests to determine exactly how much corneal tissue will be removed to correct vision and with what ablation pattern.
Market Dynamics: Drivers
Increasing technological advancements
The increasing technological advancements in corneal topographers is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The developed advanced devices help to address the unmet needs and offer a wide range of advantages to patients. Advancements in technology have led to corneal topography devices with enhanced accuracy and precision in mapping the corneal surface. This is crucial for diagnosing and treating various eye conditions.
For instance, on January 18, 2023, CooperVision Specialty EyeCare launched its pioneering digital fitting tool, Visavy at the 2023 Global Specialty Lens Symposium (GSLS). The easy-to-use, web-based fitting software incorporates topography-guided algorithms to assist the design and selection of Paragon CRT orthokeratology contact lenses for myopia management.
Moreover, advanced software capabilities enable more sophisticated data interpretation and visualization. This can assist clinicians in making more informed decisions about patient care. This further allows for a more comprehensive assessment of the cornea, providing detailed information for diagnostic and treatment planning. Many companies are focusing on developing the next generation and advanced corneal topographers.
For instance, on November 12, 2020, Medmont International Pty Ltd., a leading provider of precision diagnostic instruments and software solutions for global specialty eye care, launched in North America, Australia, and New Zealand its next generation corneal topographer, the medmont meridia Advanced Topographer.
In Addition, on December 21, 2020, NIDEK CO., LTD., a global leader in the design, manufacture, and distribution of ophthalmic, optometric, and lens edging equipment, launched the B-scan Denoising Software for the NIDEK OCT series. This software converts a B-scan retinal OCT image to a high-definition image by a denoising technique using deep learning. A large data set of images that are each averaged from 120 images are used as teaching data for deep learning to create clear retinal images comparable to images generated by averaging 120 images.
Further, the increasing prevalence of corneal disorders, rising FDA approvals for better devices, increasing clinical trials to launch more advanced devices, increasing awareness and advancements in the development of novel corneal topographers are the factors expected to drive the market over the forecast period.
Restraints
Factors such as minor risks associated with the corneal topographers and the high cost of the corneal topographers are expected to hamper the market.
Segment Analysis
The global corneal topographers market is segmented based on type, technology, topographic maps, application, end-user and region.
The OCT technology segment accounted for approximately 46.2% of the corneal topographers market share
The OCT technology segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. OCT (Optical Coherence Topography) technology is most widely used in ophthalmology, including for corneal imaging. OCT technology provides a non-invasive imaging technique that uses low-coherence light to capture the micrometer-resolution, three-dimensional images. It provides detailed cross-sectional images of the cornea, allowing clinicians to visualize its layers and assess its thickness.
In corneal imaging, OCT technology is particularly valuable for diagnosing and monitoring conditions like keratoconus and evaluating the corneal flap in refractive surgeries like LASIK. For instance, on March 23, 2023, Haag-Streit launched a new corneal ectasia display for the Eyestar 900 swept-source-based precision OCT analyzer. The new display features OCT-based topography for elevation information of the cornea front and back surface, as well as pachymetry maps and profiles, Belin ABCD grading, and complementary parameters to support corneal specialists in identifying even the slightest signs of ectatic changes, and the first signs of keratoconus.
Moreover, the Anterior Chamber Suite also boasts 12 mm Class A-topography of the anterior and posterior cornea. Haag-Streit OCT-based topography provides high-quality 18 mm diameter OCT images of the anterior chamber, including the crystalline lens, for visual inspection of key structures such as lens position, ICL vault, or chamber angle.
Furthermore, OCT technology helps to allow for the visualization of different layers of the cornea, including the epithelium, stroma, and endothelium. This detailed imaging aids in the diagnosis of various corneal disorders. This integration provides a comprehensive assessment of corneal structure and shape. The increasing adoption of this technology helps to hold the largest market share.
Geographical Analysis
North America accounted for approximately 39.7% of the market share
North America region is expected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period owing to the strong presence of major players and technological advancements. North America especially the United States is known for its strong presence of major players such as medical device companies. This presence of major players actively performing research activities to develop corneal topographers with advanced features, further increases the adoption of the devices for diagnosing and monitoring various eye disorders
For instance, on August 28, 2020, Topcon Healthcare, a leading provider of medical devices and software solutions for the global eye care community, launched its new Aladdin-M instrument to the US market. Aladdin-M combines corneal topography, pupillometry, and optical biometry to enable objective measurement of corneal curvature, pupil dynamics, and axial length metrics.
Furthermore, increasing technological advancements in the region are also expected to drive the market. The technologically advanced devices provide more accurate results in a better manner. The region tends to be an early adopter of new and advanced technologies. Ophthalmologists and eye care professionals in the region are likely to hold advanced corneal topography systems for precise diagnosis and treatment of various eye disorders.
Competitive Landscape
The major global players in the corneal topographer market include OCULUS, Inc., Tomey Corporation, NIDEK CO., LTD., Cassini Technologies, EyeSys Vision, Tracey Technologies, Topcon Corporation, Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems AG, Medmont International Pty Ltd. and OPTIKON 2000 SpA among others.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the global corneal topographer market. During the pandemic, many healthcare companies around the world postponed or canceled many research activities that focused on developing advanced corneal topographers to prioritize resources for COVID-19 patients. Refractive surgeries, which often involve the use of corneal topography for preoperative planning, may have been delayed, impacting the demand for these devices. The pandemic led to disruptions in global supply chains of this devices.
