Dry Eye Syndrome - Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2028
• Dry eye syndrome (DES), also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that causes ocular discomfort, visual disturbances, and tear film instability, which can potentially damage the ocular surface. The DES market has had few new therapeutics in the last decade. However, the current treatment landscape is anticipated to witness a dramatic progress with the expected launch of numerous pipeline DES drugs during the forecast period, which will be a significant...

Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2026
There are two clinical forms of age-related macular degeneration (AMD): dry and wet. Currently there are therapies available only for wet AMD. Drugs in late stages of development target the wet AMD segment and the late stage or atrophic form of dry AMD, called geographic atrophy (GA). The global markets are currently overwhelmingly dominated by anti-VEGFs for wAMD, including Lucentis, Eylea, and Avastin, which together accounted for 99.3% of AMD sales. Visudyne, photodynamic therapy (PDT), is used in a minority...

Retinitis Pigmentosa - Opportunity Assessment and Forecast
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy that is caused by mutations in genes that code for proteins involved in maintenance and function of the photoreceptor cells, cones and rods. While RP genotypes are heterogenous, it is also important to note that patients with the same mutation can exhibit different phenotypic manifestations. The genetic mutations can cause a number of effects including an inability to produce the required protein, the production of a toxic protein, or the formation of...

Dry Eye Syndrome: Global Drug Forecast and Market Analysis to 2026
Dry Eye Syndrome (DES) is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that causes ocular discomfort, visual disturbances, and tear film instability, which can potentially damage the ocular surface. With a rapidly accelerating worldwide prevalence and the limited treatment options available, there is a growing pressure for new therapies and curative treatment for DES patients. Significant efforts are being made to develop a new treatment for DES, as current pharmacologic management is known to only provide temporary symptomatic...
