                        Eyewear Market

An eyewear item or accessory is one that is worn on or over the eyes, whether for ornamentation or comfort, protection against the environment, or to improve or enhance visual acuity. The most common types of eyewear include glasses (also called spectacles), sunglasses, and contacts. A pair of goggles can also be considered an eyewear item. Blindfolds on the other hand are a form of eyewear which blocks vision in a variety of situations.

According To Coherent Market Insights " The global eyewear market is projected to reach around US$ 461.6 billion by the end of 2027, in terms of revenue, growing at CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2019-2027). "

Demographic changes such as age, eye problems such as myopia and glaucoma, and fashion style among young people, as well as growing awareness about eye health, are expected to drive the global eyewear market. Furthermore, the growing elderly population is driving demand for prescription-based eyewear and readymade reading glasses, which is expected to drive growth in the eyewear market. Furthermore, ongoing urbanisation, rising disposable income, and shifting lifestyle trends are expected to drive growth in the eyewear market.

Regular eyeglasses, which optical professionals sometimes refer to as "dress eyewear," must meet a higher standard of impact resistance than safety eyewear. This higher standard applies to safety glasses and goggles' lenses as well as their frames. There are two types of safety glasses: prescription and non-prescription (also known as "plano" safety glasses). Regular prescription eyeglasses do not qualify as safety glasses unless they meet specific criteria, regardless of their size or the durability of the frame and lenses.

For maximum protection, choose safety frames and lenses rated for high impact, just as you would with independent contractors. Non-prescription safety eyewear is available at most hardware, building supply, and sporting goods stores if you don't need prescription lenses or wear contact lenses. These safety glasses are typically made of lightweight polycarbonate for comfort and come in appealing wrap-style frames. Choose models with a high impact rating for the best protection value. (On the frame, look for the "Z87+" marking.) If you are over 40 and have presbyopia, some models even have a bifocal reading segment in the bottom half of the lens.
