Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration Market Analysis
A landmark market research report reveals that the global Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Market is on a robust growth trajectory, projected to nearly double from its 2023 valuation of $12.03 billion to a substantial $22.64 billion by 2031. This forecast reflects a strong Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.22% over the forecast period 2024-2031.
The dry AMD sector, which focuses on a condition that has long been a challenge in ophthalmology, is experiencing a surge in growth that signals a potential turning point in treatment. This significant expansion is driven by several key factors:
- Aging Population: With global demographics shifting older, the primary at-risk group for dry AMD is rapidly growing.
- First FDA Approvals: The recent green light for the first-ever dry AMD treatments has ignited the market.
- Pipeline Momentum: A rich array of novel therapies, from complement inhibitors to cell therapies, is advancing through clinical trials.
- Genetics Insights: Breakthroughs in understanding AMD's genetic basis are opening new therapeutic avenues.
- Early Detection Tech: Advanced imaging and AI-driven diagnostics are enabling earlier intervention.
- Patient Advocacy: Stronger advocacy groups are raising awareness and research funding.
- Quality of Life Focus: As longevity increases, preserving vision becomes more critical for independence.

The report underscores that an 8.22% CAGR is particularly notable in this context. Dry AMD has been a "holy grail" in ophthalmology—a prevalent condition lacking effective treatments. This growth rate doesn't just reflect market dynamics; it suggests we're at the brink of a therapeutic revolution in a field long marked by frustration.
Industry players across the spectrum are intensely engaged. Pharmaceutical giants are leveraging their immunology expertise to target inflammation's role in AMD. Biotech firms are pioneering with stem cell-based retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) transplants. Even companies from other sectors are entering—like those using nanotechnology for drug delivery to the back of the eye.
