The global choroidal neovascularization market size reached USD 6.9 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 12.2 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.13% during 2025-2033.
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) refers to the creation of new blood vessels in the choroid layer of the eyes affecting the Bruch's membrane and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Its symptoms include lipid exudation, subretinal blood and fluid, and distortion, waviness and black spots in the central vision. At present, a combination of procedures, such as fluorescein angiography (FA), indocyanine green (ICG) angiography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanning, are utilized for diagnosing CNV. As per the results, doctors then prescribe anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs, thermal laser treatment and photodynamic therapy (PDT), to prevent the growth of the blood vessels.
The market is experiencing growth on account of the rising prevalence of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), ocular histoplasmosis, pathologic myopia, angioid streaks, choroidal tears and inflammatory diseases of the choroid and retina. Moreover, the increasing geriatric population, which is more vulnerable to serious health conditions, is acting as another key factor bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the growing adoption of combination drugs, along with the introduction of long-lasting anti-VEGF drugs, is propelling the demand for CNV treatments worldwide. Other factors, such as improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing investments in research and development (R&D) activities, are also contributing to the growth of the market.
