Open-angle Glaucoma Market Share, Size, Trends and Forecast till 2030
Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible multifactorial optic neuropathy that is characterized by open-angle of the anterior iridocorneal chamber, typical optic nerve head changes, progressive loss of peripheral vision (typical visual field changes) followed by central visual field loss (blindness) for which intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important risk factor. The disease is usually bilateral, but asymmetry is often seen. It is one of the most common types of glaucoma and occurs either with increased IOP or normal IOP (referred to as normal-tension glaucoma (NTG)). Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) have raised IOP with no other underlying disease. If there is an identifiable underlying cause for raised IOP, this is termed secondary glaucoma. DelveInsightu2019s Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) u2013 Market Insights, Epidemiology, and Market Forecastu20142030 (7MM) report delivers an in-depth understanding of the disease, historical, and forecasted epidemiology as well as the market trends of OAG in the United States, EU5 (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom), and Japan.
