Global Uveitis Market 2014-2018
M2 - Mon Jun 23, 4:56AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3f25wz/global_uveitis) has announced the addition of the "Global Uveitis Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. Currently, the current competition in the Global Uveitis market is weak and the available treatment options have only been moderately successful in meeting market demand. The current market is served in the main by three approved products namely Alcon Laboratories's Durezol, Allergan's Ozurdex, and Bausch & Lomb's Retisert. The expected entry of new players such as Lux Biosciences's Luveniq (NDA filled), pSivida Corp.'s Medidur (phase III), and Santen Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.'s DE-109 (phase III) within the forecast period is expected to intensify the competition in future. The products currently available in the market are associated with low safety and as those products do not serve the market's unmet need, the market continues to present opportunities for stronger pipeline candidates. According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increasing prevalence of eye disorders around the world, which has consequently led to a rise in the incidence of uveitis. Uveitis is responsible for approximately 5 to 20 percent of legal blindness in western countries and approximately 25 percent of blindness in the developing world. Key Topics Covered: 01.
