The Diabetic Macular Edema Market Size is valued at USD 3.95 billion in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 4.56 billion by the year 2031 at a 1.9% CAGR during the forecast period for 2024-2031.
Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) is an ocular disorder associated with diabetes, characterized by fluid accumulation in the macula, resulting in swelling and impaired central vision. If untreated, it may result in visual loss; however, therapy alternatives exist to mitigate swelling and protect sight.
Hence, the adoption of Diabetic Macular Edema is expected to increase in the near future as concerns grow over diabetic patients. Growing risk factors such as aflibercept, bevacizumab, and ranibizumab are factors expected to drive the growth of the global Diabetic Macular Edema market. The investment in the healthcare sector is another factor expected to augment the target market growth. The increasing research and development activities globally are expected to boost market expansion in the coming years.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic and the high cost of treating diabetic macular edema could limit the target market's growth during the forecast period, rising R&D activities, government policies to use sustainable components for production, and investments by major players are all anticipated to create lucrative growth opportunities in the revenue for players operating in the global market for diabetic macular edema over the forecast period.
