Eye Health Supplements Market Trends

EXPANSION INTO EMERGING MARKETS

Expansion into emerging economies represents a substantial opportunity for growth in the eye health supplements industry, as several factors are driving demand for preventive health solutions. As disposable incomes rise and access to healthcare improves in many developing countries, people are becoming more aware of the importance of eye health and the potential benefits of dietary supplements. 

According to the World Health Organization, around 1.3 million people worldwide suffer from some form of vision impairment, many of whom live in regions with limited healthcare infrastructure. As these economies grow, populations are becoming more health-conscious and increasingly prioritizing preventive measures, such as the use of eye health supplements to address conditions like age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, and digital eye strain.

In these growing markets, urbanization and lifestyle changes are contributing to a rise in eye health issues. Increased screen time from digital devices—used for work, education, and entertainment—has led to a surge in cases of digital eye strain and other related problems. 

This has driven consumers to seek supplements that claim to alleviate these symptoms and support overall eye health. The expanding middle class in Southeast Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa is more likely to invest in health and wellness products, including eye health supplements. For instance, the growing popularity of e-commerce platforms in these regions has made it easier for consumers to access a wide variety of products, further boosting demand.

Eye Health Supplements Market Segment Insights

Global Eye Health Supplements By ingredient type Insights

Based on ingredient type, the Eye Health Supplements Market has been segmented into lutein and zeaxanthin, antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, coenzyme Q10, flavonoids, alpha-lipoic acid, astaxanthin, and others. The Lutein and Zeaxanthin segments held the largest market share in 2024, and the antioxidants segment is the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period (2025 -2035).

Lutein and zeaxanthin have emerged as the most dominant ingredients in the Eye Health Supplements Market due to their well-established role in protecting the retina from oxidative damage and harmful blue light. These carotenoids are naturally concentrated in the macula and have been clinically proven to support visual function and slow the progression of age-related macular degeneration, especially in older adults. Their inclusion in widely referenced studies like the AREDS2 trial has significantly boosted their credibility among healthcare professionals and consumers alike. 

On the other hand, antioxidants are experiencing the fastest growth in this market, driven by rising digital screen exposure and increasing cases of oxidative stress-related eye conditions. Antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, zinc, and selenium help neutralize free radicals and protect ocular tissues, aligning perfectly with the growing shift toward preventive and holistic healthcare. As consumers become more proactive in maintaining their vision health, and as awareness spreads through online platforms and professional recommendations, demand for both lutein-zeaxanthin and antioxidant-rich supplements is expected to rise steadily. These trends are further reinforced by the aging global population and the widespread adoption of digital lifestyles, positioning both segments as critical drivers of market growth in the years ahead

Global Eye Health Supplements By form  Insights

Based on form, the Eye Health Supplements Market has been segmented into capsules, liquid, gummies, softgel, and others. The capsules segment held the largest market in 2024, and the liquid segment is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period.

Based on form, the Eye Health Supplements Market is segmented into capsules, liquid, gummies, softgel, and others. Among these, the capsules segment accounted for the largest market share in 2024. Capsules are widely preferred due to their ease of consumption, longer shelf life, and ability to retain nutrient stability. They are also convenient for manufacturers to produce and allow precise dosage, making them a trusted choice among both consumers and healthcare professionals. 

However, the liquid segment is emerging as the fastest-growing category during the forecast period. This growth is driven by the increasing demand for fast-absorbing and easy-to-swallow supplements, especially among the elderly and children who may have difficulty with pills. Liquid supplements also offer flexible dosing and can be blended with other health beverages, which enhances their appeal. Additionally, rising consumer interest in clean-label and natural formulations is pushing innovation in liquid supplement offerings. These trends are expected to support strong growth in this segment over the coming years.

Global Eye Health Supplements By application Insights

Based on application, the Eye Health Supplements Market has been segmented into age-related macular degeneration, cataract, glaucoma, eye fatigue, corneal support, eyelid conjunctivitis, and others. The age-related macular degeneration segment held the largest market in 2023, and the glaucoma segment is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period.

Based on application, the Eye Health Supplements Market is segmented into age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cataract, glaucoma, eye fatigue, corneal support, eyelid conjunctivitis, and others. Among these, the AMD segment held the largest market share in 2023, largely due to the rising aging population and increasing awareness about preventive eye care. Age-related macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults, and supplements containing lutein, zeaxanthin, and antioxidants have been widely recommended to slow its progression. This has significantly driven demand in this segment. 

Meanwhile, the glaucoma segment is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. As glaucoma often develops without early symptoms, there is growing emphasis on early intervention and eye pressure management, which is boosting interest in supplements that support optic nerve health and improve blood flow to the eyes. Increasing cases of chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension, which are linked to a higher risk of glaucoma, are also contributing to the segment’s growth. Additionally, the expansion of online health platforms and increased accessibility to eye care products are supporting broader consumer reach and market expansion in this segment.

Global Eye Health Supplements By distribution channel Insights

Based on the distribution channel, the Eye Health Supplements Market has been segmented into hospital pharmacy, retail pharmacy, hypermarkets & supermarkets, and e-commerce. The e-commerce segment held the largest market in 2024 and is the fastest growing segment during the forecast period.

Based on the distribution channel, the Eye Health Supplements Market is segmented into hospital pharmacy, retail pharmacy, hypermarkets & supermarkets, and e-commerce. In 2024, the e-commerce segment accounted for the largest market share and is also projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. This growth is driven by the increasing shift in consumer buying behavior toward online platforms, offering convenience, a wide range of product options, and easy price comparisons. The rise of digital health awareness, along with the influence of social media and wellness-focused e-commerce brands, has significantly boosted the visibility and sales of eye health supplements online. 

Moreover, subscription-based services, targeted advertisements, and product reviews further encourage repeat purchases and customer engagement. With growing internet penetration, especially in emerging markets, and the availability of secure online payment options, e-commerce is rapidly becoming the preferred channel for health-conscious consumers. This trend is expected to continue as consumers seek more accessible and personalized supplement solutions from the comfort of their homes.
