The Growing Demand for Cataract Surgery: Why Office-Based
Surgical Suites Offers a Better Solution for Surgeons and Patients
Not only is the demand for cataract surgery projected to increase with the aging population, the demand for presbyopic refractive procedures is also increasing with the projected market cap growth in excess of 1000% in the next ten years.

While there are currently more than 5,400 ASCs, with more than 1,000 specializing in ophthalmic surgeries, that number is insufficient to keep up with the projected demand. Clearly, another solution is needed.
