To read more about the latest highlights related to the corneal implant market, get a snapshot of the key highlights entailed in the Global Corneal Implant Market Report Corneal Implant Overview Corneal implants, also known as corneal inlays, are innovative devices designed to correct refractive errors such as presbyopia, a condition where the eye's ability to focus on nearby objects diminishes with age. These tiny implants are placed within the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye, to enhance its optical properties and improve vision. Unlike traditional eyeglasses or contact lenses, corneal implants offer a more permanent solution with minimal maintenance, providing individuals with clear vision and freedom from dependency on corrective eyewear. The procedure for inserting corneal implants is relatively quick and minimally invasive, often performed on an outpatient basis. By carefully reshaping the cornea's curvature, these implants can restore near vision, allowing individuals to read, work on computers, and perform other close-up tasks without difficulty. With advancements in technology and materials, corneal implants continue to evolve, offering promising outcomes for those seeking long-term vision correction without the inconvenience of glasses or contacts. Corneal Implant Market Insights In 2023, North America dominated the corneal implant market, primarily due to the presence of key industry players in the region. Favorable reimbursement policies, heightened research and development efforts focused on corneal implants, and the escalating burden of corneal blindness all contribute to this growth trend. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2022 revealed that around 6 million Americans experienced vision loss and 1 million suffered from blindness in 2017. The prevalence of risk factors like diabetes and hypertension, as highlighted in the CDC's National Diabetes Statistics Report of 2020, further exacerbates ocular disorders. With approximately 34.2 million Americans diagnosed with diabetes in 2020 and another 88 million displaying pre-diabetic conditions, the demand for corneal implants is expected to rise as ophthalmic disorders become more prevalent. Additionally, North America benefits from significant product development and partnership initiatives within the corneal implants sector. Notably, in July 2022, Carl Zeiss Meditec and Precise Bio announced a collaboration aimed at developing and commercializing tissue-based implants, underscoring the region's dynamic corneal implant market landscape.

WARNING. Danger of injury due to failure to observe the patient selection criteria! Failure to observe the contraindications and potential adverse effects may result in serious permanent patient injury. The usage of the laser system is limited to a specific field of applications. Observe the contraindications and potential adverse effects listed in the User Manual before selecting a patient and starting any treatment. Contraindications. Contraindications of the Technolas Teneo 317 Model 2 include patients: (1) with any type of active connective tissue disease or autoimmune disease; (2) with signs of keratoconus, abnormal corneal topography, and degenerations of the structure of the cornea (including but not limited to pellucid marginal degeneration); (3) with significant dry eyes (severe Dry Eye Syndrome). If patients have severely dry eyes, LASIK may increase the dryness. This may or may not go away. Severe eye dryness may delay healing of the flap or interfere with the surface of the eye after surgery. It may result in poor vision after LASIK; (4) for whom the combination of their baseline corneal thickness and the planned operative parameters for the LASIK procedure would result in less than 250µ of residual corneal thickness from corneal endothelium; (5) with uncontrolled diabetes; (6) with uncontrolled glaucoma; (7) with active eye infections or active inflammation: (8) with recent herpes eye infection or problems resulting from past infections; (9) with known sensitivity to medications used for standard LASIK surgery. Potential Risks and Side Effects: (1) Miscreated flap; (2) Subconjunctival hemorrhage or bleeding; (3) Wrinkles in flap that may require a flap lift; (4) Corneal erosion/abrasion, epithelia defect; (5) Elevated IOP; (6) Debris or foreign body under flap; (7) Epithelial ingrowth under flap; (8) Debilitating visual symptoms, especially at night; (9) Decreased or fluctuating visual acuity; (10) Decreased ability to see in low-light conditions; (11) Light sensitivity; (12) Dry Eye syndrome; (13) Inadequate treatment result; (14) Regression; (15) Corneal damage; (16) Posterior vitreous detachment or retinal detachment, floaters or vascular accidents; (17) Foreign body sensation or pain (initial postoperative days); also, potentially including chronic eye pain that is resistant to therapy referred to as neuropathic pain; (18) Infection/inflammation; (19) CTK (Central Toxic Keratopathy); (20) Medication intolerance; (21) Ptosis; (22) Cataract; (23) Ocular penetration; (24) Potential risk of psychological harm. This is not all you need to know. Please see the User Manual for a complete list of safety information, including a full list of contraindications, warnings, precautions and risks. Caution: Federal (U.S.) law restricts this device to sale, by or on the order of a physician. Indications and Important Safety Information for IC-8 Apthera IOL INDICATIONS: The IC-8 Apthera IOL is indicated for unilateral implantation for the visual correction of aphakia and to create monovision in patients of age 22 or older who have been diagnosed with bilateral operable cataract, who have up to 1.5 D of astigmatism in the implanted eye, and who do not have a history of retinal disease and who are not predisposed to experiencing retinal disease in the future. The device is intended for primary implantation in the capsular bag, in the non-dominant eye, after the fellow eye has already undergone successful implantation (uncorrected distance visual acuity 20/32 or better and best-corrected distance visual acuity 20/25 or better) of a monofocal or monofocal toric IOL that is targeted for emmetropia. The refractive target for the IC-8 Apthera IOL should be -0.75 D. The lens mitigates the effects of presbyopia by providing an extended depth of focus. Compared to an aspheric monofocal or monofocal toric IOL, the lens provides improved intermediate and near visual acuity, while maintaining comparable distance visual acuity. CONTRAINDICATIONS: (1) Patients with dilated pupil size less than 7.0 mm. (2) Patients with a history of retinal disease including but not limited to, high myopia, diabetes, macular disease, sickle cell disease, retinal tear, retinal detachment, retinal vein occlusion, ocular tumor, uveitis, and patients who are predisposed to experiencing retinal disease in the future. WARNINGS: The lens should not be implanted if appropriate intraocular support of the lens is not possible. Severe subjective visual disturbances (e.g., glare, halo, starburst, hazy vision) may occur after device implantation. There is a possibility that these visual disturbances may be significant enough that a patient may request removal of the lens. Contrast sensitivity in eyes implanted with this lens is significantly reduced when compared to the fellow eye implanted with a monofocal or monofocal toric IOL. Although there was no significant reduction in binocular contrast sensitivity in the IDE clinical study, it is essential that prospective patients be fully informed of this visual effect in the implanted eye before giving their consent for unilateral implantation of the lens. Patients should be informed that they may need to exercise caution when engaging in activities that require good vision in dimly lit environments (such as driving at night or in poor visibility conditions). There is a possibility that visual symptoms due to reduced contrast sensitivity may be significant enough that a patient may request removal of the lens. This lens should not be implanted bilaterally because bilateral implantation is expected to cause significant reduction in contrast sensitivity under all lighting conditions. The use of this lens in patients with corneal astigmatism greater than 1.5 D is not recommended. Diagnostic tests in patients implanted with the lens may take longer and require some additional effort from the patient and the physician to perform. Use of some medical lasers to treat certain eye conditions may present potential risks of damaging the FilterRing component of the lens. Removal of the lens may be necessary prior to retinal or vitreal procedures. Surgeons should perform a careful benefit-risk assessment based on individual patient characteristics, weighing all the risks disclosed in the Directions for Use labeling against the benefit of extended depth of focus. Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy treatments may be more difficult to perform and may be less effective in an IC-8 Apthera IOL implanted eye. Specific training from Bausch & Lomb, Inc. or its authorized representative related to YAG capsulotomy is required before a surgeon is authorized to implant the IC-8 Apthera IOL. PRECAUTIONS: Prior to surgery, prospective patients should be informed of the possible risks and benefits associated with this lens and a Patient Information Brochure should be provided to the patient. Patients with a predicted postoperative astigmatism between 1.0 D and 1.5 D may not obtain as great an amount of improvement in intermediate vision compared to patients with lower amounts of astigmatism. CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed physician.
