- LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis), a minimally invasive procedure for vision correction, is becoming an increasingly preferred alternative to eyeglasses and contact lenses due to its high success rate, rapid recovery time, and lasting results for patients with myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism
- The growing demand for LASIK surgery is primarily fueled by rising incidences of refractive errors globally, increasing awareness of advanced eye care solutions, and a strong consumer preference for convenience and improved quality of life without dependency on corrective lenses
- North America dominated the LASIK eye surgery market with the largest revenue share of 40.5% in 2024, driven by high awareness levels, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and widespread adoption of technologically advanced LASIK platforms, particularly in the U.S. where top-tier ophthalmic clinics offer customized treatment using femtosecond and wavefront-guided lasers
- Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region in the LASIK eye surgery market during the forecast period due to a growing middle-class population, increasing healthcare spending, and expanding access to vision correction services
- The wavefront-guided LASIK segment dominated the LASIK eye surgery market with a market share of 42% in 2024, attributed to its precision, lower risk of side effects, and superior visual outcomes tailored to the individual’s eye structure
