The global acute & chronic allergic conjunctivitis treatment market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). Allergic conjunctivitis may be the result of eye trauma, contact lens wear, eye surgery, immune deficiency, or other diseases that as a result lead to the growth of bacteria. The allergy-related disorders have substantially grown owing to the high adoption of digital devices, and pollutants. Such factors have led to the surge in the demand for allergy relief eye drops as the primary form of treatment. Apart from all these factors, growth in the working population is also leading to several forms of eye-related allergies.
Besides, the number of acute and chronic allergic conjunctivitis cases is projected to rise globally in the near future. The major causes of the same include inadequate eye hygiene habits, an increasing number of post-operative eye infections, coupled with the emergence of new pathogens. As per the survey conducted by the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, in 2005, approximately 70% of patients with acute conjunctivitis consult primary and urgent care providers, accounting for 1.0% of overall primary care office visits. Further, adenoviruses account for 65-90% of cases of viral conjunctivitis. In addition, the global incidence of herpes simplex keratitis was calculated at approximately 1.5 million with 40,000 new cases of severe monocular visual impairment or blindness a year.
