The global corneal topographers market size is expected to reach USD 1.06 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.0% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The primary driving factors for the market growth are increasing age-associated ophthalmic disorders such as cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and refractive errors along with the rise in the geriatric population.
One of the main factors influencing the market for corneal topographers is the increasing incidence of ophthalmic disorders, including cataracts and diabetic retinopathy. For instance, according to the Eye Bank Association of America, keratoconus is a major corneal disorder affecting one in every 2,000 individuals in the U.S. Moreover, the increase in the elderly population is another factor expected to emerge as a positive growth driver.
Growing efforts by government organizations to increase awareness and reach patients with effective ophthalmic care through ambulatory centers are expected to bolster market growth. Governments provide funding and subsidies for the establishment and operation of ambulatory centers that offer ophthalmic care. These financial incentives are intended to improve the availability and affordability of eye care services, such as diagnostic evaluations, surgical procedures, and post-operative care, in these centers.
Governmental organizations often launch awareness campaigns to educate the public about the importance of routine eye examinations and the availability of ophthalmic care services in ambulatory settings. These initiatives strive to raise public awareness of common eye disorders like cataracts and motivate people to visit accessible ambulatory centers for early identification and treatment.
