Tonometry Market Overview
Tonometry is referred to diagnostic procedure to measures the pressure inside your eye that is known as intraocular pressure (IOP). This procedure is used for examination of glaucoma disease which can cause blindness by the damaging the nerve inside the eye. Further, tonometer is the optical device for the diagnosis of the intraocular pressure.
Market Size and Forecast
The global tonometry market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% over the forecast period i.e. 2017-2024. Moreover, the global tonometry market is projected to account for outstanding sales by the end of 2024. Further, rising ophthalmic related healthcare development all over the globe is projected to foster the growth of tonometry market. Moreover, rising prevalence of eyes disorders is also projected to bolster the growth of tonometry market.
The global tonometry market is segmented into type, technology, modality, end user and region. Additionally, the type segment is further sub-segmented into applanation tonometry, pascal dynamic contour tonometer, rebound tonometer and indentation tonometer. Further, applanation tonometry segment in sub-segmented into contact and non-contact. From the above segments applanation tonometry segment accounted the largest share in 2016 in terms of revenue. Moreover, applanation tonometry segment is believed to register a highest CAGR by the end of 2024. Apart from this, hospitals segment by end user is envisioned to capture considerable CAGR over the forecast period. In addition to this, growing number of ophthalmic diagnostic centers in developing region is believed to be the dynamic factor behind the rapid growth of tonometry market.
In terms of geography, North America is projected to dominate the global market of tonometry during the forecast period. Additionally, U.S. is the leading country in this region due to numerous factors such as presence of major key vendors. Moreover, various players are rigorously investing into research and development activities related to imaging diagnostic products which is also projected to flourish the growth of tonometry market. Further, U.S. health care spending increased by 5.8% to reach USD 3.2 trillion which is also expected to impel the growth of tonometry market by the end of 2024.

Growth Drivers and Challenges
Rising incidences of glaucoma disease coupled with advancement in imaging diagnostic products for better diagnosis is expected to be the dynamic factor behind the rapid growth of tonometry across the globe. Further, diabetes is one the major factor which is increasing the prevalence of eye disorders among the population. Moreover, growing old age population along with high occurrence of diabetes among older population across the globe is a major factor which is likely to propel the demand for tonometer during the forecast period. Additionally, according to U.S. Census Bureau, 8.5 percent of people worldwide (617 million) are aged 65 and over, further this percentage is projected to boost to nearly 17 percent of the world’s population by 2050 (1.6 billion).
Furthermore, government initiatives to develop the healthcare infrastructure on the back of strengthening GDP figures of developing nations such as China, India, Malaysia and other countries is envisioned to bolster the growth of tonometry market. Additionally, according to vision2020australia, in Australia, 801,000 number of people aged 40 or over is expected to loss there vision by the end of 2020. Further, this factor is also predicted to foster the growth of tonometry market.
However, high cost of tonometry is expected to hinder the growth of tonometry market during the forecast period.
