The increasing prevalence of eye diseases is expected to drive the growth of the superficial punctate keratitis treatment market. Eye diseases encompass a range of conditions affecting vision and eye health, including infections, degenerative disorders, and structural abnormalities. The rising incidence of these conditions is attributed to aging populations, prolonged screen exposure, diabetes, and environmental factors such as pollution and UV radiation. Treatments for superficial punctate keratitis, including lubricating eye drops, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory medications, help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing for corneal surface damage. For example, in May 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, a UK-based government agency, reported that England recorded over 8.9 million vision outpatient attendances in the financial year ending 2023, with a rate of 15,362 per 100,000 population, up from 14,613 in the previous year. As a result, the increasing prevalence of eye diseases is fueling the demand for superficial punctate keratitis treatments.
