Age-Related Macular Degeneration Market Trends
- Creation of nuclear weapons to propel the market growth
Vision loss is a severe issue for the elderly because it becomes worse with time. Wet macular degeneration and dry macular degeneration are the two main types of macula deterioration. Both could be fatal and necessitate medical treatment. As a result of an increase in elderly patients, the market is growing. In 2021, the WHO estimated that age-related macular degeneration would impact more than 200 million people worldwide, causing more than 10.4 million cases of moderate-to-severe visual impairment. In addition, the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations predicted that 750 million people would be 65 years of age or older in 2021. Only a few number of drugs, particularly anti-VEGFs, are now approved to treat this illness. The frequent and unpleasant intraocular injections required for these drugs increase the burden and lead to non-adherence to treatment. Some of the big players are working on longer-acting anti-VEGFs and vitreous implants that enable sustained medication administration. Additionally, the introduction of long-acting anti-VEGF medications like Vabysmo and Beovu is anticipated to fuel market expansion in the ensuing years. Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.
Furthermore, macular degeneration is the most typical reason for loss of eyesight that is permanent. NGOs, optometrist groups, and health agencies all carry out a number of initiatives, including programmes, activities, and campaigns, to educate the public about the impacts of AMD and the appropriate courses of treatment. One such instance is a significant movement known as National AMD Awareness Month, which is observed in February and aims to raise awareness of AMD as the primary cause of vision loss. The major goal of AMD month is to promote awareness of the condition's symptoms, risk factors, and available therapies. The demand for macular degeneration medications is also being driven by rising funding for the condition's research and associated initiatives, which also urge patients to get eye exams to increase the likelihood of early identification.
However, pharmaceutical companies are creating a variety of medications to treat AMD since there is no known cure. As a result, a number of medications are being developed and tested for the treatment of AMD. Wet AMD can be successfully treated with anti-VEGF medications since they stop the fluid leak and restore vision. Thus, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate age-related macular degeneration market revenue globally.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration Market Segment Insights
Age-Related Macular Degeneration Type Insights
The age-related macular degeneration market segmentation has been segmented by type into Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration and Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration. The wet age-related macular degeneration segment dominated the market growth in 2021 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. The increasing use of VEGF inhibitors, which are generally used to treat wet AMD, is the main factor fueling the expansion of this market segment. All of these VEGF inhibitors, have been given the US FDA's blessing for the treatment of wet AMD.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration Stage Insights
The age-related macular degeneration market segmentation, based on stage, Intermediate Stage Age-Related Macular Degeneration, Early-Stage Age-Related Macular Degeneration and Late Stage Age-Related Macular Degeneration. The intermediate stage age-related macular degeneration segment dominated the age-related macular degeneration market revenue in 2021 and is projected to be the faster-growing segment during the forecast period, 2022-2030. There may be some or no vision loss with moderate AMD. In this stage, the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which is made up of cells that promote the health of the retina, has undergone changes and there are either numerous medium-sized drusen or at least one giant drusen in one or both eyes.

Asia Pacific age-related macular degeneration market accounts for the fastest growing market share. Due to accessibility issues and high prescription costs, the sale of treatments for exudative AMD in APAC is currently negligible. However, AMD is highly prevalent in the area, making it a market that could expand. Additionally, there aren't many businesses in APAC engaged in the marketing and development of treatments for exudative AMD. Moreover, China age-related macular degeneration market held the largest market share, and the India age-related macular degeneration market was the fastest-growing market in this region.
Europe age-related macular degeneration market is expected to grow at a substantial CAGR from 2022 to 2030. This may be a result of Europe's significant unmet requirements and increased purchasing ability to purchase patented medications. In addition, it is anticipated that changes in lifestyle and the arrival of new macular degeneration medications would increase the need for these medications in the area. Further, the UK age-related macular degeneration market held the largest market share, and the Germany age-related macular degeneration market was the fastest-growing market in the region.
