Increasing Spending Capacity among People Providing Tailwinds to Market
Apart from that, the increasing instances of nearsightedness or partial blindness both among adults and minors due to hereditary and ecological elements has also helped demand in the Middle East eyewear market. Other things benefitting the market are the rising disposable incomes of people in the region. The money is egging them to buy online games, smartphones, and tablets which keeps them hooked most of the time thereby affecting eyesight. This in turn is fuelling the market. Besides, the increasing capacity to spend among the people is also resulting in their buying latest models of eyewear and discarding their existing ones. This too is positively impacting demand.
Restraints for the market are sales of unbranded frames, illegal sale of novelty lenses, and the difficult vernacular conditions in many countries.
