Global Glaucoma Eye Drops Market Overview:
Glaucoma is caused by a build-up of fluid in the eye called aqueous humor, or simply aqueous humor however, glaucoma is permanent that cannot be reversed but medicine and surgery help to stop further damage. This causes an increase in pressure in the eye (intraocular or intraocular pressure), which damages the optic nerve and leads to loss of vision. Eye drops are generally known to be the most common treatment for glaucoma. They decrease the amount of fluid in the eye by either increasing the flow of fluid from the eye or decreasing the amount of fluid produced. Medicines used to treat glaucoma are classified according to their active ingredient. These include prostaglandin analogs, beta-blockers, alpha agonists, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, and rho kinase inhibitors. In addition, combination products are available for patients who need more than one type of medication. An older class of drugs, the cholinergic agonists (like pilocarpine), are not widely used today because of their side effects. Currently, eye drops are often the first choice for treating patients in the United States. For many people, a combination of medication and laser treatment can safely control eye pressure for years. Eye drops used to treat glaucoma lower eye pressure by helping the eye fluid to drain better and/or by reducing the amount of fluid the eye makes. World Glaucoma Week (WGW) is a joint global initiative of the World Glaucoma Association (WGA) and the World Glaucoma Patients Association (WGPA), to raise awareness of glaucoma. Glaucoma is the second foremost cause of blindness and the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, with an estimated 4.5 million blinded by the condition. It was estimated that the number of people with glaucoma will increase to 79.6 million by 2020.
