Surgical Microscopes Market – Market Insights
Advanced surgical microscopes offers operator a controllable options for illumination and visualization, which is required in micro-incisional techniques. Surgical microscopes are used in performing various surgeries such as ophthalmic surgeries, endodontic surgeries, neurosurgeries, oncology surgeries, and urology surgeries, ENT surgery, and others. For instance, there are ENT surgery microscopes available in the market, which are specifically designed for precision, flexibility, and ease of use. These microscopes are used for performing tympanoplasty, mastoidectomy, transoral laser surgeryand other ENT procedures. Thus, increasing adoption of these surgical microscopes in such surgeries is expected to drive growth of the market over the forecast period.
The global surgical microscopes market was valued at US$ 777.8 million in 2018, and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.4% over the forecast period (2019-2027).

Rising adoption of surgical microscopes for performing various surgeries are expected to boost growth of the surgical microscopes market
There are different types of surgical microscopes used for performing various surgeries such as dental surgeries, ophthalmic surgeries, and other minimally invasive surgeries. For instance, dentistry microscopes help in improving the quality of examination and treatment in dentistry. Dentistry microscopes have application in restorative dentistry, endodontics, and dental implants. Thus, increasing number of dental disorders along with technological innovations are expected to drive growth of the segment over the forecast period. For instance, in 2018, according to the World Dental Federation reports, around 3.9 billion individuals globally suffered from oral diseases, and nearly 15% to 20% cases of periodontal (gum) disease were reported. Therefore, increasing demand for high precision procedures is expected to drive growth of the segment over the forecast period.
Increasing adoption of strategic acquisitions by major players operating in the surgical microscopes to expand their product portfolios is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in March 2019, a U.S.-based medical device development company, Alcon, acquired PowerVision, Inc. The acquisition is expected to help Alcon increase its product portfolio of intraocular lenses (AT-IOLS) and surgical microscopes.
Surgical Microscopes Market – Restraint
High cost of surgical microscopes and heavy custom and excise duty levied by regional governments are expected to hinder growth of the surgical microscopes market over the forecast period. The average price of surgical microscopes ranges from US$ 14,000 to US$ 400,000 depending on the type of surgical microscope. Therefore, high cost of surgical microscope is expected to hinder growth of the market in emerging economies due to low healthcare expenditure, as compared to developed economies.

Surgical Microscopes Market - Regional Analysis
North America surgical microscopes market is expected to account for the largest market share over the forecast period, owing to, increasing product launches and product approvals in North America. For instance, in April 2015, HAAG-STREIT SURGICAL received the 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its intraoperative-OCT system. This approval has allowed the company to market its intraoperative-OCT systems in the global medical devices market.
Moreover, increasing demand for high precision surgeries for treatment of chronic diseases, and increasing number of strategic partnerships are expected to drive growth of the surgical microscopes market in Europe over the forecast period. For instance, in April 2019, John Weiss & Son, a distributor and manufacturer of gold-standard ophthalmic micro-surgical instruments and procedures, entered into a partnership agreement with Haag-Streit Surgical to become a sole distributor of surgical microscopes in the U.K.
