The global eyewear market is expected to reach USD111.12 billion by 2026F, growing at CAGR of 5.83% during the forecast period. The global eyewear market is being driven by rising population, economic development, and consumer purchasing power. Most people experience vision problems at some point in their lives.

Furthermore, the growth is highly driven by the popularity of sunglasses as well as a rising sense of fashion among people. The market has been growing as diseases such as cataracts, myopia, and hyper myopia are becoming more common, and eye specialists prescribe spectacles after diagnoses to provide clear vision.
