Phoropter Market Trends

Market expansion is anticipated to be propelled by the growing adoption of contact lenses and eyeglasses. These devices require specific prescriptions tailored to each individual's needs and phoropters ensure accuracy in these prescriptions.
 

• For instance, according to The Washington Post, in 2023, two-thirds of American adults wear some kind of glasses or contact lenses.
   
• Phoropters help in determining the correct base curve and diameter of contact lenses for optimal fit and comfort. Similarly, contact lenses need correction for astigmatism or other complex vision issues which the device can accurately assess.
   
• Further, contact lens wearers require regular eye examinations to monitor eye health and ensure the prescription is up to date. Changes in vision or the need for a new prescription drive patients to visit eye care professionals and use phoropters.
   
• More individuals are aware of the importance of regular eye exams and opt for vision correction methods like contact lenses and glasses. A shift towards bionic eye, digital devices and screen time has increased the need for vision correction, driving the demand for phoropter examinations.
