INTRODUCTION

STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
 
The BCC report, Global Markets for Ophthalmic Devices, Diagnostics, and Surgical Equipment, provides a comprehensive description of conditions and diseases affecting the eye and products used for treatment. The study includes information regarding incidence and prevalence of eye conditions and risk factors associated with those conditions. Major product segments with in-depth market and competitive analysis included in each segment discuss ophthalmic devices, diagnostics, and surgical procedures. Research and development activities are included with an emphasis on segments offering benefits to aging populations.
