HYDERABAD, TELANGANA, INDIA, June 9, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global eyewear market continues to expand due to increased demand for vision correction and the influence of fashion on buying choices. According to a 2025 report on the Eyewear market by Mordor Intelligence, the global eyewear market size is projected to grow from USD 188.07 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 5.08%. Consumers are purchasing eyewear not just for medical needs, but also as a style accessory. According to Mordor Intelligence, this dual-purpose demand is expected to push the market toward USD 240.95 billion by 2030.

Key Trends Shaping the Eyewear Industry

Several trends are influencing the way eyewear is designed, marketed, and consumed:

Customization and Personalization: Consumers are seeking eyewear that reflects their style. Brands are investing in modular frames, custom lens coatings, and fit-to-face sizing.

Eco-Friendly Materials: Sustainability is becoming a priority. Frames made from recycled metals, biodegradable acetates, and plant-based plastics are gaining market share.

Digital Try-On and Virtual Retailing: Online shoppers now expect AR-based virtual try-ons. This trend is helping online eyewear sales grow, even in traditionally offline markets.

Blue Light Protection: With increased digital device usage, eyewear with blue light filtering has become popular—even among those without vision prescriptions.

Unisex and Gender-Neutral Designs: Designers are moving toward universal styling, catering to a broader audience and avoiding traditional gender segmentation.

Asia-Pacific Leads Global Eyewear Sales

The Asia-Pacific eyewear market holds the largest share globally and is projected to maintain its pace as the fastest-growing region. High population density, growing middle-class income, and increasing access to vision care are major drivers. Retailers and manufacturers are also customizing products to meet regional demands and preferences.

Growing Demand for Protective Eyewear Driven by Workplace Safety and Innovation

The global protective eyewear market is expected to grow steadily, driven by strict workplace safety regulations, rising environmental hazards, and increasing awareness of eye protection. Key sectors include construction, chemicals, military, and transportation. Around 2,000 U.S. workers suffer eye injuries daily (NIOSH), prompting innovation and regulatory action. Companies like Pyramex and Uvex are launching advanced, comfortable eyewear such as Ever Lite and Uvex Rx cd5522. North America leads the market due to strong OSHA regulations, while Asia-Pacific shows rising demand. Overall, growing safety concerns and product innovation are fueling market expansion.
