Emphasis on Improving Management of Dry Eye Diseases and Rise in Research Activities to Aid Market Growth
Dry eye diseases continue to remain a major health problem for millions of patients worldwide. As per the report published by the International Dry Eye Workshop II (DEWS II), dry eye is a multifactorial disease that is caused by the homeostasis loss of the tear film and other ocular symptoms. There are two major types of dry eye diseases as per the pathophysiological classification– aqueous deficient dry eye (ADDE) and evaporative dry eye (EDE). At present, considerable research and development activities are being focused on improving management and treatment of dry eyes by taking into account etiological distinctions.

One of the most common dry eye diseases is the chronic inflammatory disease, which continues to affect the quality of life of millions of people worldwide. Due to major shortcomings of existing treatments for dry eye diseases, the focus in the dry eye disease diagnostics & treatment market primarily shifted toward drug development and new treatments. Several companies are currently in the process of developing new drugs or waiting for the approval of the FDA for their newly developed alternatives. For instance, Kala Pharmaceuticals recently submitted a drug application to the FDA for a new drug– KPI-121 for dry eye treatment due to considerable encouragement received in phase one and phase two trials. Similarly, Aldeyra Therapeutics is currently enrolling patients for phase three clinical trials in which, the efficacy of the newly developed reproxalap ophthalmic solution is likely to be evaluated. Research and development activities coupled with a flurry of promising products in the pipeline are set to open up new avenues for players operating in the current dry eye disease diagnostics & treatment market.
Telemedicine Services Likely to Grow amid COVID-19 Pandemic
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have a short-term impact on the overall growth of the global dry eye disease diagnostics & treatment market. In terms of clinical trials and research, activities are likely to remain unaffected due to the exemption provided by governments. In addition, as scientists and researchers continue to explore the link between the novel coronavirus and its effect on patients suffering from dry eye diseases, research activities are projected to remain seamless. In terms of in-person appointments with patients, numbers are likely to witness a considerable drop, as several eye care professionals are increasingly turning toward telemedicine services for routine checkups. The demand for dry eye disease diagnostic and treatment, particularly in the first two quarters of 2020, is expected to remain sluggish. However, the dry eye disease diagnostics & treatment market is projected to show signs of recovery in the latter half of 2020 and continue to grow at a faster rate in 2021.
Analysts’ Viewpoint
The global dry eye disease diagnostics & treatment market is anticipated to grow at a moderate CAGR of ~4% during the forecast period. The market growth can be primarily attributed to factors such as growing prevalence of dry eye diseases worldwide, advancements in medical technology, focus on research and development activities, and promising pipeline products and therapies. Market players should focus on research activities to discover cost-efficient and highly effective treatment and drugs for dry eye disease treatment. Moreover, market players should focus on product diversification mainly during the pandemic, and offer products that are in demand during the COVID-19 crisis.
Dry Eye Disease Diagnostics & Treatment Market: Overview
Dry eye is a disorder of the tear film due to tear deficiency or excessive evaporation, which causes damage to the interpalpebral ocular surface and is associated with symptoms of ocular discomfort
Different diagnostic tests are performed for diagnosis of dry eye disease such as Schirmer’s test, corneal staining, and tear osmolarity. Treatment options for dry eye include artificial tears, anti-inflammatory drugs, and secretagogue.
Diagnostic tests for dry eye disease include tests, which generally measure three components for diagnosis: subjective symptoms, tear function, and vital staining test
Several diagnostic tests have been developed such as Schirmer’s test, corneal staining, tear break-up time (TBUT), tear osmolarity, tear stability analysis, and OCT
Treatment for dry eye disease consist of medications such as cyclosporine, anti-inflammatory drugs, artificial tear, and secreatagogue. Punctal plugs and eye inserts are also used to treat dry eye disease.
Treatment aims to lubricate eye, reduce inflammation of tear glands, eye linings, avoid withdrawal or drainage of tears, and increase mucin production to support tear film adhesion
