The global lensmeter market size was USD 244.6 million in 2021 and is projected to touch USD 378.75 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period.

Lensmeter is an instrument used by the opticians to prescribe the correct pair of eyeglasses to the customer. It is also known as a vertometer or foci meter. To properly detect and mark the uncut lenses and the correct mounting of lenses in the spectacles frame. It is also used in verifying the power of contact lenses. This instrument can measure the power and find the optical center of the convex lens. This instrument is used by doctors and eye specialists to detect the correct power for the lenses of eyeglasses.

COVID-19 Impact: Stringent Implementation of Lockdown to Impede Market Progress

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the lensmeter market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The pandemic had a negative impact on the growth of the market. Stringent implementations of lockdown were imposed across the world, which affected the supply and production of the product. Production was directly affected, and the industry had to work with a minimum workforce. Additionally, transport was banned, which disrupted the market supply chain. The demand could not be fulfilled due to lesser production capacity. Pandemic proved to be a challenging year for the industry.

The general population is opting for blue light glasses to avoid any harm of the UV rays on their eyes. Shifting towards technology leads to the higher adoption of technology such as mobiles, laptops, and other smart devices are anticipated to drive the market in coming years. Using these technologies, it may harm the eyesight of the user, and thus, the population is adopting blue light glasses as prevention. 

"Ever-Expanding Adoption of Advanced Technologies to Promote Growth"

The technological adoption and usage are expected to result in increasing number of cases of eyesight disorder, which may bolster growth in the market. Additionally, the rising eyesight issues in youngsters and elders are expected to boost the market growth. The young generation, and the elders, are diagnosed with cataracts, myopia, or hypermetropia. To deal with these vision conditions, spectacles are prescribed, and thus, the market is expected to boom. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), at least 2.2 billion people suffer from blindness or vision impairment, out of which at least 1 billion diagnose with vision impairment, which could have been prevented.  

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Inability to Offer Lens Details to Limit Market Progress"

The lensmeter market share may be affected by its inability to offer the details of spectacles lenses such as lens form, center thickness, segment style, and others. This instrument cannot measure the focal length of any unknown lens. It can only measure the mean arterial focus, which may hinder the market growth. Additionally, this device does not measure the true focal length of a lens, which can be measured from the principal planes and not just from the surface of the lens. The dependency of the automatic device on operators for analyzing, reading, and variation in government regulations across regions is anticipated to hinder growth in the market.
