Ophthalmic Tonometers Segmentation
Modality (Desktop, Handheld)
The global ophthalmic tonometers market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by modality into the desktop and handheld. Among these two types of segments, the handheld segment is anticipated to capture the largest market size in the global ophthalmic tonometers market. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the better patient comfort delivered by these devices, along with innovative product launches by manufacturers are factors expected to drive segment growth during the forecast period. For instance, in march 2021, ICARE FINLAND OY launched a next-generation self-tonometer, HOME2. Glaucoma patients are able to measure their eye pressure at home with this device once they have been properly trained on how to use it. Moreover, greater portability and ease of access to these devices are some added factors that are anticipated to boost market growth further throughout the forecast period.
Product Type (Applanation, Pascal Dynamic Contour, Rebound, Indentation Tonometer)
The global ophthalmic tonometers market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by product type into applanation, pascal dynamic contour, rebound, and indentation tonometer. Amongst these four segments, the applanation segment is anticipated to garner the largest market size on the back of the technological advancement in tonometers, along with enhanced diagnostic accuracy delivered by applanation tonometers. Besides this, there is no requirement for fluorescein dye instillation or topical anesthesia during the use of applanation tonometers which makes the diagnosis process simple and safe. On the other hand, the rebound segment is anticipated to witness a notable CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the ease of portability of these devices and their easy-to-use feature that make them more popular for screening programs. Moreover, a massive surge in the trend of in-home care is fuelling the requirement of such ophthalmic diagnostic equipment which can be used in the comfort of the home is another significant factor that is anticipated to accelerate the segment growth in the coming years.
