Wide Field Imaging Systems Market size and Key Trends in terms of volume and value 2016-2026
Fundus photography and fluorescein angiography have long served to aid ophthalmologists in evaluation, management and documentation of various eye related disorders but limits its ability to deliver significant imaging results. Majority of the eye related disorders such as diabetic retinopathy, hypersensitive retinopathy and ocular ischemic syndrome affects the entire retina. In such cases, use of wide field imaging systems has evolved as a remarkable technology expanding its ability to image the entire retina gaining a new understanding of the role of such technologies in the management of various kinds of retinal disorders. Typical fundus camera captures 30 to 50 degree views of retina and optic nerve compared to wide field imaging system that can deliver 100-200 degrees to the periphery or beyond equator revealing pathologies such as ischemia or neurovascular proliferation that cannot be identified using standard techniques such as angiography. Wide field imaging systems demonstrates its extended applications in retinopathy pathologies particularly of ascular nature including diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, retinal vasculitis, choroidial masses and retinopathy of prematurity.

<strong>Wide</strong> <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Imag<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>Systems</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />
However, early detection, timely treatment, <strong>and</strong> appropriate follow-up care can reduce the risk <strong>of</strong> severe<br />
vision loss by 95%. Additionally FDA clearance <strong>of</strong> revolutionary wide field imag<strong>in</strong>g systems for vision<br />
screen<strong>in</strong>g for all newborn <strong>in</strong>fants across the globe. Cl<strong>in</strong>ical data suggests that vision disorders may affect<br />
between 10 -20% <strong>of</strong> all newborns globally. New applications <strong>of</strong> wide field imag<strong>in</strong>g technology are soon<br />
expected to be available to <strong>in</strong>tegrate <strong>in</strong>to large <strong>volume</strong> rout<strong>in</strong>e cl<strong>in</strong>ical practice. The technology is expected<br />
to transform the way <strong>of</strong> diagnosis <strong>and</strong> management <strong>of</strong> various eye disorders.<br />
<strong>Wide</strong> <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Imag<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>Systems</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Regional Overview<br />
Region wise, the global wide filed imag<strong>in</strong>g systems market is classified <strong>in</strong>to regions namely, North America,<br />
Lat<strong>in</strong> America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia-Pacific, Japan, Middle East <strong>and</strong> Africa.North America<br />
leads the global wide filed imag<strong>in</strong>g systems market followed by Europe. A large number <strong>of</strong> hospitals are now<br />
<strong>in</strong>tegrat<strong>in</strong>g the technology due to its extended application <strong>in</strong> detect<strong>in</strong>g various eye disorders by imag<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
entire ret<strong>in</strong>a. Also cont<strong>in</strong>uous rise <strong>in</strong> prevalence <strong>of</strong> various eye related disoders are also boost<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
revenue generation <strong>in</strong> the region. FDA approval <strong>of</strong> such devices is also contribut<strong>in</strong>g towards the <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>g<br />
adoption <strong>of</strong> such devices across various countries.<br />
Smart Contact Lens: <strong>Key</strong> Players<br />
