Market Driver – Rising incidence of eye infections
Global prevalence of eye infections has been rising significantly over the past few decades due to factors such as increasing pollution levels, rising incidence of pre-existing medical conditions like diabetes which weaken the eyes' natural defenses, and an aging global population prone to age-related eye disorders. For instance, in February 2023, according to Medscape eMedicine, the estimated incidence of bacterial conjunctivitis in the U.S. is 135 cases per 10,000 population annually, about 6 million people annually. As more people globally are afflicted by eye infections, the demand for tobramycin eye drops and other such anti-infective treatments is expected to rise steadily. Various public awareness campaigns and government initiatives are expected to aware people about proper eye care, treatment of infections, and over-the-counter medications like tobramycin eye drops.
