Keratometers Market Insights
Global Keratometers Market size was valued at USD 313.2 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 327.61 billion in 2024 to USD 469.47 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period (2025-2032).
A keratometer, commonly known as an ophthalmometer, is a diagnostic tool used to measure the degree and axis of astigmatism by measuring the curvature of the anterior surface of the cornea. It's utilized in conjunction with a distinctive contact lens holder and a unique holding attachment. It accomplishes this by estimating the size of an image reflected from two paracentral locations and stabilizing the image with doubling prisms, allowing for more precise focusing. As a result, the prescription for the eyewear is quite accurate.
Higher incidence of astigmatism, rising ageing group, increasing awareness of astigmatism, development of new keratometers leading to effective assessment, better accessibility to keratometers, increased demand for preventive healthcare through routine eye check-ups, and rising initiatives regarding ophthalmic health by governmental and non-governmental organisations are all expected to drive the global keratometers market.
US Keratometers Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.
