Tear Duct Plugs Market: Introduction

Tear duct plugs are small-sized, biocompatible medical devices that are inserted into the tear ducts to block the drainage. Tear duct plugs are also known as punctal plugs or lacrimal plugs. Tear duct plugs reduce the symptoms of dry eye by keeping the eye moist and healthy. Tear duct plugs provide a simple treatment option for chronic dry eye conditions. Dry eye is a very common condition wherein lack of sufficient moisture and lubrication on the surface of the eye leads to dry eye syndrome.

The alternative medical terms used to describe dry eyes are keratitis sicca, keratoconjunctivitis siccan, and dysfunctional tear syndrome. Some of the symptoms of dry eye include blurry vision, burning, and scratchiness. Tear duct plugs block the tear drainage channel located in the inner corner of the eye. Tear duct plugs are generally considered when prescribed eye drops fail to relieve the dry eye condition. Tear duct plugs are usually made of materials such as silicone and collagen.

Tear Duct Plugs Market: Drivers and Restraints

Nowadays, dry eye condition is becoming one of the most common faced complaints in the ophthalmologist’s clinic. However, dry eye symptoms can be significantly reduced with the use of artificial tears of varying viscosity. Tear duct plugs reduce the burden of dry eye condition, which is expected to be the prominent factor driving the growth of the global tear duct plugs market. Increasing geriatric population and technological advancements are also expected to drive the growth of the global tear duct plugs market.

According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, it is observed that occurrence of dry eye condition increases with the age. Around 3.2 million women and 1.7 million men aged 50 and over in the U.S. are affected by dry eye syndrome. However, alternative treatment options may hamper the growth of the global tear duct plugs market.

Tear Duct Plugs Market: Overview

The global market for tear duct plugs is expected to witness a noteworthy growth rate over the forecast period. Temporary tear duct plugs are used initially by the doctors to see how the body reacts. Temporary tear duct plugs naturally dissolve in the body and fade after some time and generally are made of collagen material. Silicone tear duct plugs are permanent tear duct plugs which can last for years. Intracanalicular tear duct plugs offer a more permanent solution as they sit deeply in the duct. Amongst all, hospitals end-use segment is expected to hold maximum share in the global tear duct plugs market.
