This growth is largely attributed to the rising incidence of glaucoma, which affected 64.3 million people in 2013, 76.0 million people in 2020, and the number expected to rise to over 111.8 million by 2040, stated by the American Academy of Ophthalmology. The increasing aging population, particularly in developed regions like North America and Europe, further bolsters demand, as elderly individuals are more susceptible to visual field defects. Technological innovations are revolutionizing the market, particularly with the adoption of automated perimeters that allow for faster, more precise visual field testing.
 

For example, the introduction of advanced digital perimeters such as the Humphrey Field Analyzer 3 by Carl Zeiss Meditec has enhanced the diagnostic capability of healthcare providers by improving accuracy and patient comfort. Similarly, Haag-Streit’s Octopus perimeters continue to be popular among ophthalmologists due to their ease of use and sophisticated diagnostic features.
 

Another key trend is the growing focus on outpatient care, with ophthalmic clinics and other end-users such as ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) accounting for a significant share of the market. This shift is driven by increasing healthcare costs, making outpatient care more attractive for both patients and providers. Additionally, there is an increasing adoption of telemedicine, especially post-COVID-19, encouraging the use of portable perimeters in clinics and remote settings.
 

An ophthalmic perimeter is a diagnostic device used to measure the visual field of a patient, particularly to detect blind spots and vision loss in peripheral or central vision. It is primarily used for diagnosing and monitoring glaucoma, retinal diseases, and neurological disorders. The device evaluates the sensitivity of different areas of the retina by assessing the patient's ability to perceive light stimuli projected at various locations in the visual field.
