The market for contact lenses is growing mainly because of three key reasons - aesthetics, cosmetics, and therapeutic. Contact lenses are used to help individuals correct ophthalmic disorders, typically including presbyopia, myopia, astigmatism, and glaucoma. This market also finds applications in a wide variety of other purposes such as fashion, vision problems, accessories, or ophthalmic disorders. Contact lenses are popular because of their use for refractive error correction, novelty products, and cosmetic use. "TMR's market findings based on a contact lens spectrum study states that nearly 125 million people used contact lenses in 2004.

TMR's contact lens market report also elaborates upon the segmentation based on design, characteristics, and by usage pattern. However, the two main categories in this market are hard contact lenses and the soft contact lenses. Soft contact lenses contain water-absorbing materials such as silicon hydrogel and hydrogel that are highly flexible. They are more comfortable and easier to wear as compared to hard contact lenses, which are made of rigid gas-permeable glass covering only a part of the cornea. Studies in the report also show that the market for soft contact lenses is becoming highly popular among the population because they align better with changing lifestyles. Considering the global contact lens market by characteristics, the segment further includes spherical lenses and toric lenses. However, by vision correction design the market can be further categorized into spherical, toric, and multifocal lenses.
