There are two types of irrigating syringes available including bulb irrigation syringes and piston irrigation syringes. Irrigation syringes are used to clean and remove debris from ear, eyes, and enteral part of the body.

Irrigation Syringe Market – Drivers

Rising levels of air pollutants in the atmosphere is expected to witness significant growth in the irrigation syringe market. Air pollutants may release harmful emission or excessive quantities of substances including gases, particles, and biological molecules. These air pollutants may enter the eye and develop risk of injury in the eyes. Physician often uses the irrigation syringes to remove any foreign objects from eyes.

Moreover, increasing cases of hearing impairment due to accumulation of excessive earwax, certain infectious diseases, chronic ear infections, and exposure to excessive noise is expected to propel irrigation syringe market growth.
