Which Major Drivers Are Accelerating Expansion Within The Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) Market?
The increase in prevalence of diabetes is expected to drive the growth of the diabetic macular edema (DME) market going forward. The increasing prevalence of diabetes is attributed to factors such as sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, rising obesity rates, aging populations, and genetic predisposition. Diabetes causes diabetic macular edema by damaging retinal blood vessels, leading to leakage of fluid into the macula and resulting in swelling. For instance, in June 2023, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, a US-based public health research institute, reported that over half a billion people globally were living with diabetes. This number is expected to more than double, reaching 1.3 billion people by 2050. Therefore, the increase in prevalence of diabetes is driving the growth of the diabetic macular edema (DME) market.

Which Rising Trends Are Anticipated To Influence The Future Trajectory Of The Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) Market?
Major companies operating in the diabetic macular edema (DME) market are focusing on incorporating sustained-delivery implant technology such as refillable ocular implants to enhance treatment durability, patient compliance, and vision-maintenance efficiency. Refillable ocular implants are devices surgically placed in the eye that continuously release medication over extended periods, enabling capabilities such as less frequent dosing, sustained therapeutic exposure, and reduced treatment burden. For instance, in February 2025, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, a Switzerland-based biotechnology and pharmaceutical company, received approval for Susvimo (ranibizumab 100 mg/mL delivered via the port delivery platform), a refillable ocular implant designed to treat DME, featuring continuous delivery of ranibizumab, refill intervals as infrequent as twice per year, and non-inferior vision outcomes compared with monthly intravitreal injections. Susvimo improves patient adherence, reduces injection burden, and supports sustained vision preservation.
