Adaptive Optics (AO) Market: Overview

Adaptive optics is a method that helps in removing atmospheric disturbance along with assisting telescope in achieving diffraction-restricted imaging from land surface. Moreover, it is utilized in enhancing optical system performance through minimization of incoming wave front distortion effect by mirror deformation for distortion compensation. Apart from this, adaptive optics functions through measuring of distortions in a wave front and compensates them with equipment correcting these errors including liquid crystal array and deformable mirror.  Additionally, adaptive optics is considered as a best alternative for enhancing optical system performance.

Adaptive Optics (AO) Market: Growth Drivers

The rise in the occurrence of retinal degenerating disorders has culminated in the humungous use of adaptive optics, thereby driving market trends. Reportedly, in 2014, nearly 171 million persons were affected by age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. In addition to this, a number of people impacted due to related macular degeneration is set to increase to nearly 289 million by 2040. Apparently, an adaptive optics fundus camera assists in the observation of disruptions in the cone mosaic of retinitis pigmentosa patients. Furthermore, the rise in the use of adaptive optics in clinics & research activities will boost the adaptive optics (AO) market surge.

In addition to this, adaptive optics is also used with optical coherence tomography for enhancing high-speed imaging activities. Apart from this, technological breakthroughs in adaptive optics instruments are projected to open new vistas of growth for adaptive optics (AO) market. However, high costs of adaptive optics tools is likely to reduce its acceptance in emerging economies, thereby putting brakes on expansion of adaptive optics (AO) industry.
