The key development in the market includes innovations in ocular drug delivery to the retina with the development of intravitreal drugs. The retinal biologics market is subject to macroeconomic and industrial factors in accordance to stringent regulatory standards and approval activities for biologics.

Demand Analysis Of Retinal Biologics From 2013 to 2021 Vs Future Market Outlook For 2022 to 2028

Rising Burden of Retinal Diseases to Boost Overall Market Growth

From 2013 to 2021, the global retinal biologics market registered significant gains, experiencing a CAGR worth 10.2%

Retinal biologics are bioengineered molecules that are implanted inside the eyes to heal chronic retinal diseases. Biologics are generally produced from living organisms such as microorganisms, or animal or plant cells. Some of the retinal biologics used for retinal diseases are Eylea, Lucentis, Humira, Macugen, and others.

Increased frequency of retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration around the world is driving the market expansion. According to WHO statistics, nearly 2.2 billion individuals worldwide suffer from near or distance vision impairment. As the prevalence of vision impairment rises, the need for effective therapeutic alternatives, such as retinal biologics, is rising as well.

Retinal biologics are a new class of medications that target specific markers in the patient's body to alleviate the symptoms of a variety of systemic or ocular disorders that present in the eye.

Retinal Biologics Market

Considering these factors, the market is projected to witness high growth over the forecast period, registering an impressive CAGR of 11.1% to reach USD 41.92 Billion by 2028.

What Are The Major Factors Driving Retinal Biologics Market Growth?

Rising R&D Activities in Retinal Gene Therapies to Fuel Market Expansion

The market will be driven by a strong focus on R&D connected with retinal gene therapies conducted by different institutes, biologics firms, and innovative product releases by prominent market participants in the form of biologics and implants. Efforts to develop a complementary therapeutic treatment will boost the market growth.

Market Growth Complemented by Increasing Burden of Retinal Diseases

Diabetic retinopathy has been a rising concern as the disease leads to vision loss among type I and type II adult diabetic patients. Diabetic macular edema also results from the consequences of diabetic retinopathy, which leads to the swelling of the macula. Moreover, increasing burden of other retinal diseases such as uveitis and orbital inflammation is another factor surging demand for retinal drugs and biologics.

Retinal gene therapy is a therapeutic approach wherein inherited defective genes are replaced by treatment with DNA or RNA. Retinal gene therapy is considered to be a significant approach as there occurs less contamination, and the viral vector can easily accommodate within the eyes.

What Are The Key Restraints Towards The Retinal Biologics Market Growth?

Regulatory Obstructions Likely to Hinder Demand for Retinal Biologics

Limited availability of retinal biologics, hazardous biologic side effects, and limited access for retinal biologics and efficient treatments due to higher costs are restraining the market growth.

The market is being challenged by the side effects of retinal biologics, which include retinal tear, sickness, and eye pain. Governing authorities' strict regulatory compliances associated with biologics approval are impeding industry growth.

Country-Wise Analysis

Why is the USA Retinal Biologics Market Growing at a Rapid Pace?

Increased Prevalence of Diabetic Macular Edema to Augment Demand for Retinal Biologics

Diabetic retinopathy is a disease that affects people who have diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy is the major cause of new incidents of blindness in adults aged 20 to 74 years in the United States.

According to a new research study released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 100 million persons in the United States currently have diabetes or prediabetes.

In addition, researchers are working on innovative strategies to treat diabetic macular edema. As a result, rising R&D spending in the country as well as risk factors that contribute to disease development will have an impact on the retinal biologics market in the USA over the forecast period.

What is the Demand Outlook for Retinal Biologics in China?

Rising Efforts for Development of Retinal Drugs to Drive Market Growth.

The market in China is expected to grow due to rapidly rising cases of uveitis, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration. Diabetes is exacerbated by a shift in lifestyle and an increase in bad eating habits, as a result of these factors, the global market for retinal drugs and biologics is expected to expand significantly.

Along with increasing incidence of eye diseases, there are a growing number of research initiatives focused on retinal drugs. Furthermore, growing geriatric population, which is becoming a target patient pool for retinal biologics, will boost market growth in China.

Category-Wise Insights

Which Drug Class is Projected to Get Traction in Retinal Biologics?

VEGF-A Antagonists Most Preferred as They are Largely Tolerated & Give Instant Results to Eye Disorders.

VEGF-A antagonists are used to treat eye damage and enhance corneal wound healing. The global retinal biologics market is also expected to be fueled by the rising prevalence of other retinal illnesses such as orbital inflammation and uveitis.

VEGF-A antagonists are commonly given for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema. In the case of non-infectious uveitis, it is seen to be the ideal alternative to typical suppressing treatments.

Many firms have focused on VEGF-A antagonists because they reduce angiogenesis. Manufacturers are investing in the development of retinal biologics in a similar field due to the widespread acceptance of VEGF-A antagonist therapy.

Which Indication Dominates Retinal Biologics Demand Growth?

Increasing Adoption of Retinal Biologics for Macular Degeneration Treatment

Macular degeneration indication is expected to account 36.9% share of the retinal biologics market in 2022. Macular Degeneration is a vision loss condition that affects the macula.

Despite the availability of improved treatment alternatives, the global retinal biologics market is likely to benefit from the increased prevalence of macular degeneration. According to the American Macular Degeneration Foundation, the prevalence is higher than the combined rates of cataracts and glaucoma in over 10 million Americans (AMDF).

Because macular degeneration primarily affects adults aged 50 and over, the prevalence of MD continues to go up, despite improving treatment choices, as the population ages.

Competitive Landscape

Several companies are entering into licensing and collaboration agreements to expand their products into various countries across the world to cater to unmet demand. Leading market players are concentrating their efforts on research & development to discover new medications and improve treatment options.

For instance,

  • In 2021, SemaThera Inc. and Roche established a multi-year research and licensing relationship to expand SemaThera's novel biologics portfolio for the treatment of ischemic retinal illnesses such as diabetic retinopathy.
