Glaucoma Disease Understanding
According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, glaucoma describes a group of conditions in which there is characteristic cupping of the optic disc with corresponding visual field defects due to retinal ganglion cell loss. It is a progressive condition and the most common cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. The two major categories of glaucoma are open-angle glaucoma and narrow-angle glaucoma/angle-closure glaucoma. The “angle” in both cases refers to the drainage angle inside the eye that controls the outflow of the watery fluid (aqueous) which is being produced inside the eye.
Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is the most common form of the disease. The drainage angle formed by the cornea and iris remains open, but the trabecular meshwork is partially blocked. This causes pressure in the eye to increase gradually and damages the optic nerve. It happens so slowly that the patient may lose vision before they are even aware of a problem, while in the case of narrow-angle glaucoma, the structure inside the eye that allows fluid to drain normally from the eye (called the drainage angle) becomes restricted. Narrow drainage angles in the eye increase the risk of the drainage angle that gets blocked, resulting in a significant increase in eye pressure and risk of vision loss. If this occurs, narrow-angle glaucoma is usually called angle-closure glaucoma.

Glaucoma Epidemiology Perspective by DelveInsight
The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by Total Diagnosed Prevalence of Glaucoma, Type-specific Diagnosed Prevalent Population of Glaucoma, Gender-specific Diagnosed Prevalence of Glaucoma, Age-specific Diagnosed Prevalence of Glaucoma, Type-specific Diagnosed Prevalence of Open-Angle Glaucoma scenario in the 7MM covering the United States, EU5 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) and Japan from 2021 to 2034.
Glaucoma Detailed Epidemiology Segmentation
- The total diagnosed prevalent population of Glaucoma in the 7MM was 10,104,188 in 2020 , which is expected to increase in the forecast period.
- Among the European five countries, Germany had the highest diagnosed prevalent population of Glaucoma with 1,042,465 cases, followed by Italy and France in 2020. On the other hand, Spain had the lowest.
- Japan had 2,886,961 diagnosed prevalent cases for Glaucoma in 2020.
“As per DelveInsight’s analysis, a higher percentage of diagnosed prevalence was observed for females, in comparison to males, in all the 7MM countries. The highest proportion of Gluacoma caseswas observed in 70-79 years age group in the US, while in the EU-5 countries, people aged ≥80 years accounted for the maximum patient pool. In contrast, middle age population aged 40-49 years contributed highest patient pool in Japan. Among the major types of Glaucoma, i.e., open-angle and close-angle glaucoma, the former one accounts for a higher number of diagnosed Glaucoma cases”.
