Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices Market: By Type and Dispersive Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices ), By Application, By End User, and Region Forecast 2020-2031
Ophthalmic Viscoelastic Devices (OVDs) Market size was valued at US$ 3062.76 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 4068.51 million by 2031, growing at a significant CAGR of 4.1% from 2025-2031. This market in a variety of eye surgeries, including cataract surgery, glaucoma surgery, and others. These devices help to protect the fragile ocular tissues by producing pressure in the anterior chamber, compartmentalising inside the eye, and allowing patients to have a speedier and safer surgery with a faster recovery. Depending on the situation, ophthalmologists use a variety of ophthalmic instruments.
As a result, ophthalmic viscoelastic devices serve a critical role in the treatment of various eye diseases during surgery all over the world. Ophthalmic viscoelastic devices (OVDs) are the medical devices that are used in the cataract surgery in order to create and maintain the space in the anterior chamber of the eye during phacoemulsification and implantation of an intraocular lens (IOL). There are various types of the ophthalmic viscoelastic devices such as dispersive ophthalmic viscoelastic device and cohesive ophthalmic viscoelastic device.
Most of the ophthalmic viscoelastic devices (OVDs) contain sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). The surge in government initiatives aimed at establishing rules to control the global increase in vision impairment is pressuring major manufacturers to release new ophthalmic products. Other factors that contribute to the growth of the market include an increase in the prevalence of cataracts and glaucoma, an increase in the number of eye procedures performed, and an increase in the geriatric population. The market is also expected to rise due to an increase in the adoption of viscoelastic devices around the world.

Increase in the prevalence of eye diseases and rise in the number of cataract and glaucoma surgeries are driving the growth of the market. The favorable reimbursement policies for surgeries using ophthalmic viscoelastic devices (OVDs) and strategic approach of the manufacturers help them sustain the growth and expansion in the market. The collaborations, mergers and acquisitions among vendors are helping to drive the R&D activities which are expected to create the market growth. However, the availability of alternate therapies, poor healthcare infrastructure, and the lack of awareness among the healthcare fraternity may hinder the growth of the market over the forecast period.
