Overview
Global Retinal Vein Occlusion Market reached US$ XX million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2030, growing with a CAGR of XX % during the forecast period 2023-2030.
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the second most common retinal vascular disease and is a common loss of vision in older patients. There are two types of RVO: Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Central retinal vein occlusion is an occlusion of the main retinal vein posterior to the lamina cribrosa of the optic nerve and is typically caused by thrombosis.
Central retinal vein occlusion is further divided into two categories: non-ischemic (perfused) and ischemic (nonperfused). Branch retinal vein occlusion is a blockage of one of the tributaries of the central retinal vein.
Market Dynamics: Drivers and Restraints
Rise in technological advancements
In the quest for improved patient outcomes, the market has witnessed remarkable breakthroughs in RVO treatment options. From traditional therapies like anti-VEGF injections and laser photocoagulation to novel drugs and sustained-release implants, healthcare professionals have an array of tools at their disposal to manage RVO effectively. Moreover, advancements in diagnostic imaging technologies have enabled early detection and personalized treatment plans, ensuring better care for patients.
With advancements in genetic testing and molecular profiling, the concept of personalized medicine is making headway in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion . Tailoring therapies to an individual’s specific genetic makeup and disease characteristics allows for targeted treatments, maximizing efficacy and minimizing adverse effects. This approach is revolutionizing the landscape of RVO treatment and showing great promise in improving patient outcomes.
Furthermore, the retinal vein occlusion market is also driven by the increasing geriatric population, the growing prevalence of retinal diseases, and rising awareness about eye diseases. Moreover, increasing R&D activities, the presence of a strong pipeline, and increasing drug approvals for treating retinal vein occlusion (RVO) are the key factors anticipated to drive the market growth over the forecast period.
Market Dynamics: Restraint
Complications associated with the retinal vein occlusion can hamper the market growth rate some include it can cause macular edema, retinal ischemia, neovascular complications such as glaucoma, vitreous hemorrhage retinal traction and others. Also high cost of drugs, limited awareness about the disease and its treatment options and others also hamper the market during the forecast period.

Segment Analysis
The global retinal vein occlusion market is segmented based on disease type, drug type, distribution channel and region.
The anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) from the disease type segment accounted for approximately 45.5% of the retinal vein occlusion market share
The anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) from the disease type segment accounted for approximately 45.5% and is expected to dominate during the forecast period. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor is a breakthrough treatment for RVO including age-related macular degeneration. Anti-VEGF treatment prevents vision loss and has been shown to yield vision gains lasting up to five years. Therefore, key players in the market are focusing on the development and approval of novel anti-VEGF treatments for RVO.
For instance, in October 2023, Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. stated that Roche issued a press release regarding the long-term results of its two phase III clinical trials (BALATON study and COMINO study) for Vabysmo (faricimab) for retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
Moreover, in February 2020, Novartis received EC approval for Beovu (brolucizumab) injection, an anti-VEGF treatment for age-related macular degeneration. These initiatives are boosting the adoption of anti-VEGF treatment and contributing to segment growth.

Geographical Analysis
North America accounted for approximately 38.4% of the market share in 2022
North America is estimated to hold about 38.4% of the total market share throughout the forecast period, owing to the factors like highly regulated and well-developed healthcare infrastructure. The growing collective efforts of key players to improve their product portfolios and ensure high-quality standards are expected to boost the demand for RVO treatment across this region. The increasing prevalence of eye-related issues is estimated to be a major factor influencing market growth in this country.
For instance, in August 2022, Kodiak Sciences Inc stated that its BEACON Phase 3 study of tarcocimab tedromer (KSI-301; tarcocimab), its novel antibody biopolymer conjugate, met the primary endpoint of non-inferior change from baseline in visual acuity at week 24 compared to aflibercept in patients with macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion.
Tarcocimab also demonstrated robust anatomic responses and a favourable safety profile. After two initial monthly loading doses, tarcocimab was dosed every two months compared to consistent monthly dosing for aflibercept.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a decline in revenue generation and market expansion in the RVO treatment industry, primarily due to strict lockdowns and government regulations. Healthcare facilities have also canceled appointments and halted treatments due to their high contact nature.
