PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Growth set to slow as forecast period progresses
Value and volume sales of contact lenses and solutions are expected to remain solid though slow down notably over the forecast period. This anticipated slowdown is primarily attributable to intense price competition, which continues to undermine value.
Colour contact lenses continues to gain ground
The growth of colour contact lenses is expected to continue through 2025, building on strong momentum from 2024. In 2024, sales of colour lenses were particularly notable among young female consumers, who embraced them as beauty accessories to match the colour and design of their eyes with their mood or occasion.
Online sales of contact lenses remain prohibited
In November 2023, it was announced that contact lenses, which could previously only be purchased in optical goods stores, would start to be sold online, beginning with low-risk disposable contact lenses in January 2024. Previously, customers could only make reservations online, then pay and pick up their products at a designated store or use cross-border shopping.
