A new market analysis reveals the global ophthalmic lasers market is on a trajectory of significant growth, with sales projected to increase from an estimated USD 976.8 million in 2024 to USD 1,561.0 million by 2034. This robust expansion, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%, is being fueled by a confluence of rising global eye disorders, key technological advancements, and a growing preference for non-invasive surgical solutions.
The market’s momentum is a direct response to the global health challenge of vision impairment, with the World Health Organization reporting that at least 2.2 billion people suffer from some form of vision issue or blindness. This has intensified the demand for sophisticated, energy-based treatments that offer enhanced precision and faster recovery times.

Innovations Propel Market Forward
Technological innovation is the primary catalyst for market growth. The industry is seeing a notable shift towards laser-assisted surgeries such as LASIK and PRK, which offer superior precision and reduced invasiveness compared to traditional methods. Excimer lasers, in particular, are dominant, holding a 60.4% market share in 2024 due to their extensive use in refractive surgery, which accounts for 69.7% of all ophthalmic laser applications.
Beyond refractive surgery, lasers are playing a crucial role in managing chronic conditions. The rising prevalence of glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy is driving demand for treatments like Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) and pan-retinal photocoagulation. These laser therapies are increasingly favored for their safety, minimal side effects, and effectiveness in preventing vision loss. The push for customizable care and the integration of lasers into routine practice underscore the industry’s focus on improving patient outcomes.
Market Expansion in Key Regions
While high-income areas like the United States and Germany continue to drive adoption due to their advanced healthcare infrastructure, the fastest growth is occurring in emerging markets. China and India are poised for exceptional expansion, with projected CAGRs of 4.8% and 5.4%, respectively, through 2034. This is largely due to increasing access to eye care and the introduction of cost-effective, portable laser devices that are bridging the gap between urban and rural communities. In the USA, the market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 1.5%, driven by a strong focus on refractive surgery and robust insurance coverage.
Competitive Landscape and Future Outlook
The competitive landscape is dominated by Tier 1 companies such as Abbott Medical Optics, Alcon Inc., and Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, which collectively hold over 56% of the market share. These leaders, along with emerging players, are intensely focused on research and development to expand their portfolios. Recent developments, such as Iridex’s launch of new laser platforms and Alcon's acquisition of Ivantis, highlight the industry's strategic investments in innovation.
Despite challenges like high equipment costs and the presence of alternative treatments, the future of the ophthalmic lasers market is optimistic. The shift towards preventive care, coupled with initiatives like the IAPB's "VISION 2030" to combat avoidable blindness, will continue to expand the market. Ophthalmic lasers are not just improving existing treatments but are also becoming indispensable tools for democratizing access to quality eye care globally.
