Global Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Market - Industry Size, Share, Trends, Demand, Growth Analysis, Regional Outlook and Forecast 2016-2024

Market Overview

The prevalence of diabetes worldwide is rising continuously; simultaneously, the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy (VTDR) is also anticipated to increase drastically.  However, early detection and treatment can reduce the risk of blindness by 95%, while diabetic retinopathy often lacks early symptoms, people with diabetes should get a comprehensive dilated eye exam at least once a year. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) systems are designed and manufactured with high-precision optical metrology systems for 3D non-contact inspection and imaging, for instance, Agfa HealthCare launched “SKINTELL” i.e. non-invasive high-definition Optical Coherence Tomography solution that  offers very fast, comfortable solution for visualizing skin morphology and measuring dimensions in the skin layers.

Goldstein Research analyst forecast the optical coherence tomography market size is set to reach USD 1.72 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast years. Presence of accessory provider companies i.e the aftermarket of OCT devices and a strong network of distributors and suppliers in the market are the growth drivers of the market.

Segments Holding Major Market Share

Based on application, ophthalmology segment spearheaded the optical coherence tomography market in 2017 with the market share of 46%, whereas, introduction of other applications like dermatology imaging is expected to witness lucrative growth i.e. at the rate of 7.85% over the forecast period due to the ability of OCT imaging devices to non-invasively provide 3D images up to 2-3 mm depth with higher resolution than ultrasound.      

Based on geography, North America with 35% market share in 2017 followed by Europe are the leading markets for Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) owing to growing rate of supply of OCT imaging by manufacturers to hospitals to improve their brand image and expand product reach. Asia Pacific region is the fastest growing region and tends to hold over 24% of the market share by 2025. Presence of growth opportunities in regions such as Korea, China, India, Malaysia and others countries of South Asia are expected to be the vital impact rendering drivers. Furthermore, expansion of competitors and establishment of manufacturing units in the region while to increase efficiency, hospitals increasingly adopt OCT system for the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy, cardiovascular diseases, and dermatology.  

Market Dynamics

According to our global market study on the basis of extensive primary and secondary research: “One trend is the advancement in smart OCT for Anterior Segment, Glaucoma and Retina to make OCT standard of care and identify subtle change in pathology. For instance, CIRRUS HD-OCT by ZEISS is the industry-defining advancements for clinical assessment tools with FastTrac that reduces eye motion artifacts without sacrificing patient throughput with a proprietary scan acquisition strategy, high speed 20 Hz LSO camera, and single-pass alignment scanning.”

According to the report, major driving factor is the increasing intensity of prevalence of both diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes. In 2015, an estimated 23.1 million people or 7.2% of the U.S. population had diagnosed with diabetes and currently, about 60% of people with diabetes have yearly screenings for diabetic retinopathy.

Further, the report states the biggest challenge is the lack of reimbursement facilities and insufficient clinical data might impede the growth of the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) market.
