Eye Surgery Clinics in Australia Industry Data and Analysis
Revenue for the Eye Surgery Clinics industry has grown over recent years, mainly driven by Australia's ageing population, recovering discretionary income and a hike in the number of private health insurance policies taken out by Australians. Demand from older Australians, who are most at risk for cataracts and other age-related conditions, has combined with younger adults seeking lifestyle-enhancing procedures, contributing to a diverse and expanding client base. Private health insurers have broadened their range of ophthalmic cover, which has supported expanded access and underpinned growth in elective surgery volumes. Still, relative to the abnormally high base year of 2020-21, revenue is expected to have fallen at an annualised 3.3% over the five years through 2025-26, to $1.6 billion. This overall reduction includes an anticipated jump of 2.3% in 2025-26.
