Scleral Lens Market Size Worth USD 918.40 Million by 2034 | CAGR: 11.2%


The global scleral lenses market size is expected to reach USD 918.40 million by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report Scleral Lens Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Type (Corneo-Scleral Lenses, Semi-Scleral Lenses, Mini-Scleral Lenses, and Full Scleral Lenses), By Application, By End Use, and By Region – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Scleral lenses are large-diameter, gas-permeable contact lenses designed to vault over the entire corneal surface and rest on the sclera, offering a tear-filled space that promotes corneal healing and optical correction. The scleral lens market is experiencing robust growth due to the increasing prevalence of ocular surface diseases such as keratoconus, severe dry eye, and irregular corneal conditions. Advancements in lens design, materials, and manufacturing precision are accelerating market expansion by enhancing patient comfort, visual acuity, and long-term wearability. Surgeons and eye care professionals are increasingly recommending these lenses as therapeutic devices, driving the demand for scleral lenses demand across both clinical and specialty practices.

Customization through topography-based and impression-based fitting methods is emerging as a critical trend, enabling improved fitting accuracy and patient outcomes. Moreover, rising awareness among ophthalmologists and optometrists about the advantages of scleral lenses in managing complex ocular conditions is further supporting the scleral lens market growth. Technological integration, particularly digital imaging, and AI-assisted fitting algorithms is streamlining lens fitting and reducing chair time, contributing to operational efficiency and clinical adoption.
