The main segments in this market are A-Scan, B-Scan, UBM (Ultrasound Biomicroscopy) and Combined Scanning Devices. A-Scan is mostly employed in the measurement of the axial length of the eye and the computation of power of intraocular lens (IOL) in the cataract surgery whereas B-Scan images give two dimensional cross sectional images to diagnose the diseases of the post segment.
This market will aim at providing accurate, real-time, and non-invasive imaging that enhances clinical decision-making, surgery planning, and monitoring by ophthalmologists. Rising cases of age related eye diseases, the use of outpatient cataract surgeries as well as improvement in the hand held ultrasound technology are the driving forces in the market.

Market Drivers
- Increase in Cataract Surgery and Population Age Capping
Cataracts are the highest cause of blindness globally where there are always more than 20 Million cataract operations conducted in a period of one year. The greying of developed as well as developing population has directly led to the growth of demand in terms of availability of quality ocular imaging to facilitate pre-operative planning and post-operative assessment. A-Scan ultrasound plays a very vital role in IOL power calculation during this type of surgery and is therefore an important diagnostic tool.
As a result of better availability to the healthcare services and better information on vision correction, ophthalmic ultrasound equipment is becoming very popular at the ophthalmology clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and hospital ophthalmology sections.
- Ocular ultrasound technological progress
The latest trends in ophthalmic ultrasound are high-definition ultrasonic B-scanners, embedded artificial intelligence algorithms, and pocket-size handheld ones that can be used in the distant diagnostics. The innovations have ensured that eye ultrasounds are quicker, secure, and comfortable to the patient.
The manufacturers are also looking at the integration of ultrasound with the electronic health records and telemedicine platforms. The current process of digitization of ophthalmological practices and the growing popularity of convenient diagnosis means are a likely factor in growing the use of the advanced ultrasounds.
Product Type Segment Analysis: A-Scan Ultrasound Devices
The A-Scan Equipment has taken command of the product environment because it has become an important input in biometric readings, particularly in cataract surgery planning. Its devices are universally applied in the process of measurement of axial length which will directly influence the results of IOL calculations in regards to power.
Networked optical and digital A-Scans have minimized human error, enhanced repeatability and allowed closer matching to optical biometry. Even in areas where the advanced optical biometers are not easily available, A-Scan makes a cost efficient and highly reliable one.
Application Segment Analysis: Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery is the most common ophthalmic surgery of all time performed in different parts of the world. Proper pre-surgical planning involves proper measurements of ocular dimensions without which A-Scan and B-Scan ultrasound equipments would not be an option.
The B-Scans are particularly helpful where the optical media are opaque, e.g. dense cataract or vitreous hemorrhage. The need to have the proper and portable ocular ultrasound system will keep going despite the increased cataract cases globally especially in the outpatient departments and the mobile testing units.
