Market Analysis and Insights
Pterygium is a common ocular surface lesion that begins in the limbal conjunctiva within the palpebral fissure and progresses to the cornea. It is named after the Greek word pterygos, which means "wing". The lesion occurs more frequently at the nasal limbus than the temporal with a characteristic wing-like appearance. UV exposure is strongly linked to the occurrence of pterygia. Individuals having a history of elevated UV exposure and those living closer to the equator have a higher incidence (outdoor work). According to certain research, males have a somewhat higher incidence than females, which could be due to a higher rate of UV exposure.
It can cause redness, inflammation, and a change in the look of the eye; it can create astigmatism, which can cause blurry vision; and it can cause a whitish or pinkish growth covering the front of the eye. It could affect one or both eyes.
Pterygium is diagnosed using a microscope to examine the front components of the eye during a full eye examination and based on the appearance of tissue growth on the cornea from the white area of the eye.

Asia-Pacific Pterygium Drug Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- The rise in incidences and prevalence of ophthalmic disorders
According to data published in the National Library of Medicine (National Centre for Biotechnology Information) in 2021, the prevalence rates vary in different places. It is most abundant in Cameron's "pterygium belt," which runs between 37° north and south of the equator.
The most common causes of pterygium include long-term exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun (most common cause) and eye irritation caused by hot, dry weather, wind, and dust. The affirmative factors state that this is the major driver for the global pterygium drugs market.
- The rise in the geriatric population
With the growing geriatric population across the globe, the prevalence of ophthalmic diseases with severe ocular pain is also growing. According to a data provided published in "Global Prevalence of Blindness and Distance and Near Vision Impairment in 2020: progress towards the Vision 2020 targets and what the future holds" by "The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology" (ARVO) estimated 41.9 million people were blind.
With the growing population, the pressure on the healthcare system is increasing. The demand for care and services is rising to treat the problem of ophthalmic disorder, including pterygium. Therefore, the increasing geriatric population is a great opportunity for the Asia-Pacific pterygium drug market.
Opportunity
-
Programs and initiatives to reduce the burden of eye diseases
The International agency to prevent blindness has launched several programs and initiatives with well-reputed NGOs and corporates to spread awareness and reduce the burden of eye diseases.
For instance,
-
International Agency endorses our Children's Vision and an initiative co-founded by the Brien Holden Vision Institute and the Vision For Life fund (created by Essilor) for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB)
Restraint/Challenge
The growing prevalence of various ophthalmic disorders has also increased the necessity for timely treatments. However, the treatments and proper medication for ophthalmology disorders are not very cheap. Recent studies show that the price of topical steroids price is increasing in the past few years. Even though some topical ophthalmic steroids like prednisolone are mildly cheap, other advanced medications and eye drops are still expensive.
