The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the Ophthalmic Equipment Market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
Secondary sources referred to for this research study include financial statements of companies offering microfluidics and information from various trade, business, and professional associations. The secondary data was collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall size of the Ophthalmic Equipment Market, which was validated by primary respondents.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after obtaining information regarding the Ophthalmic Equipment Market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand and supply sides across major countries of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts, such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), Directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from microfluidics manufacturers; distributors; and key opinion leaders.
Primary interviews were conducted to gather insights such as market statistics, data on revenue collected from the products and services, market breakdowns, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation. Primary research also helped in understanding the various trends related to technology, application, vertical, and region. Stakeholders from the demand side customers/end users who are using microfluidics were interviewed to understand the buyer’s perspective on the suppliers, products, and their current usage of ophthalmic equipment and the future outlook of their business, which will affect the overall market.

Market Size Estimation
The research methodology used to estimate the size of the Ophthalmic Equipment Market includes the following details.
The market sizing of the market was undertaken from the global side.
Country-level Analysis: The size of the Ophthalmic Equipment Market was obtained from the annual presentations of leading players and secondary data available in the public domain. The share of products and services in the overall Ophthalmic Equipment Market was obtained from secondary data and validated by primary participants to arrive at the total Ophthalmic Equipment Market. Primary participants further validated the numbers.
Geographic market assessment (by region & country): The geographic assessment was done using the following approaches:
Approach 1: Geographic revenue contributions/splits of leading players in the market (wherever available) and respective growth trends
Approach 2: Geographic adoption trends for individual product segments by end users and growth prospects for each of the segments (assumptions and indicative estimates validated from primary interviews)
At each point, the assumptions and approaches were validated through industry experts contacted during primary research. Considering the limitations of data available from secondary research, revenue estimates for individual companies (for the overall Ophthalmic Equipment Market and geographic market assessment) were ascertained based on a detailed analysis of their respective product offerings, geographic reach/strength (direct or through distributors or suppliers), and the shares of the leading players in a particular region or country.
