Global Surgical Microscopes Market - 2023-2030

Overview

Surgical microscope also known as an operating microscope, is an optical microscope specifically designed to be used in a surgical setting, especially requisite for microsurgery. Surgical microscopes provide adjustable magnification, bright illumination, and clear visualization of the surgical field and their applications have been increasingly used in operating rooms.

These microscopes have high-precision optics and high-power coaxial illumination, which provide surgeons with adjustable magnifications, proper working distance, and an unobstructed view of the entire operating field.

Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints

Increase in the number of minimally invasive surgeries

The increase in the number of minimally invasive surgeries is expected to increase the demand for surgical microscopes. Microscopes have introduced a new level of precision to modern cataract surgery and thus play an important role in this very frequently performed procedure.

Cataract extraction is the most prevalent surgical procedure of all medical specialties. Surgical microscopes are often used for eye-related surgeries such as keratoplasty, keratoprothitics, and cataract surgery.

For instance, according to the report published by NIH in 2021, it is estimated that around 3.7 million cases of cataract extractions, 7 million cases in Europe, and 20 million cases worldwide are performed.

Additionally, according to the Eye Bank Association of America, Domestic keratoplasty procedures increased from 49,110 in 2021 to 49,597 in 2022. Thus, an increase in the number of minimally invasive surgeries is expected to drive the market growth. Furthermore, an increase in the geriatric population and an increase in the number of microsurgeries also drive the market growth.

Restraint

High costs associated with highly advanced surgical microscopes

High costs associated with the surgical microscopes used in complicated surgeries such as neuro and spinal surgeries can hamper the market growth. The cost of a neuro-spine surgical microscope ranges over $200,000. Additionally, the complexity of operating and the lack of skilled professionals can hamper the market growth.

Segment Analysis

The global surgical microscopes market is segmented based on type, application, end-user, and region.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery segment accounted for 37.9% of the market share

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involved in improving person's appearance and the reconstruction of facial and body tissue defects due to illness, trauma, or birth disorders. Plastic and reconstructive surgery segment has been holding a dominant position in the market share due to the increase in the number of plastic surgeries. It is expected to continue throughout the forecast period.

For instance, according to the Cleveland Clinic Organization, it is estimated that more than 15 million cosmetic surgery procedures in the United States. Out of that more than 13 million of those are minimally invasive procedures.

Additionally, according to the report published by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in 2022, it is estimated that 14.9 million surgical and 18.8 million non-surgical procedures are performed worldwide. Thus, the increase in the number of plastic surgeries is expected to drive the market growth.

Geographical Analysis

North America is expected to hold a significant position in the global surgical microscopes market share

North America holds a dominant position in the market share over recent years. An increase in the number of cancer cases is expected to raise the market growth in the region. Additionally, with the increase in the geriatric population and the presence of major players in the region are expected to drive the market growth in the region and continue throughout the forecast period.

Surgical microscopes can scan tumors during surgery and examine cancer biopsies in 3-D. They remove all the cancerous tissue and conserve as much of the healthy breast tissue as possible. An increase in breast cancer cases will raise the market growth.

For instance, according to the American Cancer Society, it is estimated that about 297,790 new cases of invasive breast cancer cases are to be diagnosed in 2023 and about 55,720 new cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) will be diagnosed.

According to the New York State Department of Health, it is estimated that about 16,700 women are diagnosed with breast cancer and about 2,500 women die from the disease. It is estimated that one in eight women will develop breast cancer during her life in New York. Thus, an increase in the number of breast cancer cases is expected to raise the market growth.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis:

The COVID-19 has impacted the surgical microscope market growth negatively. This is due to the sudden onset of the lockdown and the stringent regulations imposed by the governments. The cancellations and postponement of the non-emergency surgeries have impacted the market growth.

Competitive Landscape

The leading companies with a significant market share include: Topcon Medical Systems, Inc., Olympus Corporation, Leica Microsystems., Haag-Streit Surgical, Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, ARI, Medical Technologies Co. Ltd, Alltion (Wuzhou) Co., Ltd, Seiler Medical, Jedmed Instrument Co., and Synaptive Medical among others.
