Abstract
Convenience drives the contact lens market where preference is increasingly in
favor of daily, biweekly, and monthly disposables, as against the conventional
soft lens, and rigid gas permeables. Rigid gas permeables, however, have a
strong niche of wearers requiring high acuity. The latest in technological
developments has brought soft contacts adding silicone hydrogels to the global
marketplace, a scientific advancement expected to revolutionize the extended
wear lenses segment. The contact lens and lens care solutions market is highly
competitive and concentrated. Companies compete on the basis of factors such
as product performance, price, marketing, and distribution reach.
These
and other market data and trends are presented in "Contact Lenses and
Solutions: A Global Market Review" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed
to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
