Surgical Lasers Market Demand To Escalate Till 2026
Surgical
lasers use special light beams to perform surgical procedures instead
of surgical instruments such as scalpel. Various types of lasers are
used, each with specific functions during surgery. Laser light can be
delivered either continuously or intermittently and can be used with
fiber optics to treat areas of the body that are often difficult to
access. Laser surgery is less invasive and has the advantage of
reducing risk of infection and promotes fast healing.
Laser
therapy uses high-intensity light to treat cancer and other
illnesses. These can be used to shrink or destroy tumors or
precancerous growths and treat superficial cancers including cancers
on the surface of the body or the lining of internal organs such as
basal cell skin cancer and the early stages of some cancers such as
cervical, penile, vaginal, vulvar, and non-small cell lung cancer.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers, argon lasers, and neodymium:
yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) lasers are mostly used to treat
cancer.
The
global surgical lasers market size was valued at US$ 1.4
billion in 2017 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 5.4%
over the forecast period (2018 – 2026).

Market
Dynamics
Increasing
number of surgical procedures across the globe is likely to drive
overall growth of the surgical laser market during the forecast
period. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), cataract is the prominent eye disorder and around 42 million
people were affected by severe loss of vision, with cataract being
the main cause in 2014 among 116 countries that were studied.

Control and Prevention (CDC), the total number of cataract patients
worldwide is expected to increase to 30.1 million by 2020.
Medical
lasers are extensively used for various types of cosmetic surgeries,
including the removal of certain kinds of birthmarks, port-wine
stains, reddish purple skin blotches, and others. The use of lasers
in oral and maxillofacial surgery has witnessed a substantial
increase in both, applications of lasers for different techniques and
the number of surgeons opting to use them.
Some
of the disadvantages of laser surgery such as scattered and reflected
laser beams that pose massive health hazard to the operator,
assistants, and patients, and high cost of the procedure and operator
training are expected to hinder the surgical lasers market growth
over the forecast period.
