Market Scope surveyed US ophthalmic surgeons during March and April 2022 to measure perceptions of practice patterns, product market share, and plans for the coming year. We received 119 responses from doctors performing cataract procedures, representing over one thousand total doctors in single doctor and group practices.
We have conducted annual surveys of US cataract surgeons on important issues regarding practice characteristics, product preferences, surgical techniques, and practice marketing since 2001. This survey highlights practice patterns regarding presbyopic-correcting IOLs (PC-IOLs), toric IOLs, extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOLs, correction of astigmatism, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS), sugical location, interest in upcoming technology, equipment use, treatment and management of glaucoma and micro-invasive glaucoma survery (MIGS) devices and much more. It measures market share by manufacturer, product, and market segment. Leading ophthalmic firms and organizations sponsor the survey in order to better understand industry dynamics and gain important insights into surgeons’ experiences and preferences, as well as emerging trends.
Our approach includes trend analysis based on comparisons with information gathered in previous years. This report explores many topics and includes:
This report includes responses to opinion questions, such as plans to purchase new equipment or preferred IOL features. All results are calculated based on respondent count; because not all questions are applicable to all providers, the respondent count (n), may vary throughout the survey. Quantitative market data, such as types of IOL implanted, phaco machines used, and viscoelastics used, were weighted by volume to reflect actual market size. We had a disproportionate share of surveys from high-volume surgeons with their own surgery centers. In order to reduce this bias, we stratified and weighted surveys by procedure volume and location of surgery to reflect known market dynamics.
