Orthokeratology Market Growth Accelerated by Increasing Acceptance of Non-Invasive Techniques

Orthokeratology Market


Orthokeratology is a non-invasive and reversible refractive technique used to temporarily reshape the cornea of the eye to correct refractive errors like myopia and astigmatism through the use of specially designed contact lenses worn overnight. Orthokeratology contact lenses gently reshape the cornea to temporarily improve vision without glasses or contact lenses during waking hours. These lenses are made from highly oxygen-permeable materials to prevent complications.

The global Orthokeratology Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 64.74 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.5% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market key trends:


The increasing acceptance of non-invasive techniques for vision correction is one of the major trends boosting the growth of the orthokeratology market. Orthokeratology is considered highly advantageous over other refractive surgeries such as LASIK as it is completely reversible and does not require any cutting or altering of the corneas. Additionally, orthokeratology lenses are relatively cheaper than refractive surgeries and can be reused multiple times, reducing the overall treatment cost in the long run. With growing awareness about the benefits of orthokeratology among consumers, especially in developing nations, the market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Manufacturers are also focusing on developing advanced gas-permeable materials for orthokeratology lenses to further improve comfort and safety.

Segment Analysis
The global Orthokeratology market is dominated by the spherical design segment which accounts for around 65% of the total market share. Spherical orthokeratology lenses are preferred for their ease of design, manufacturing, and compatibility with a wide range of prescriptions compared to other segment lenses. These lenses produce predictable movements in the cornea to achieve temporary myopia reduction without surgery or eyeglasses.
