In November 2016, the National Health and Family Planning Commission issued the “13th Five-Year National Eye Health Plan (2016-2020)”, which pushed the attention of eye health to an unprecedented height.

The "Plan" pointed out that with the rapid development of China's economy and society, the acceleration of the population aging process and the continuous improvement of the people's eye health needs, China's eye disease prevention and control work remains arduous. China is still one of the countries with the largest number of blind and visually impaired patients in the world. The prevalence of age-related eye diseases has increased, and the problems of ametropia among adolescents have become increasingly prominent. The problem of cataract blindness in the rural poor has not been fully solved. Ophthalmology medical resources The problem of insufficient total quantity, low quality and uneven distribution still exists. The grassroots eye health care work still needs to be strengthened; the healthy life concept of the people's eye-loving and eye-protection needs to continue to strengthen. The "Planning" also clarified the work measures for carrying out eye health publicity and education work, prevention and treatment of major eye diseases leading to blindness and visual impairment, and improvement of eye disease prevention and treatment service system.

Although it seems that the eyes of our people are not optimistic, it also shows that there is a lot of room for improvement and innovation. This is the opportunity and challenge for entrepreneurs and investors.

There are two major eye health problems: eye disease and abnormal optometry, which can lead to visual disability (divided into low vision and blindness by level).

According to Guoxin Securities Research Report, the market for Chinese eye disease diagnosis and treatment is about 20 billion yuan, and cataract is one of the main diseases. The theoretical risk of Chinese cataracts is as high as 140 million, and the market size is about 10 billion yuan. The rest also have a variety of eye diseases, including glaucoma (nearly 10 million patients in the country, but the current rate of treatment is very low), pediatric oblique amblyopia, fundus diseases (such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and retinal vein occlusion, young adults) Retinal detachment) and corneal diseases, sputum tumors, etc.

Abnormal optometry includes refractive error (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism), anisometropia, visual fatigue, presbyopia. Among them, the problem of myopia is the most serious. The latest research report of the World Health Organization shows that there are about 1.4 billion patients with myopia in the world, and by 2020, this number is expected to reach 2.5 billion. In China, the number of myopia patients is as high as 600 million, almost half of the total population. It is estimated that by 2020, the number of people with myopia will exceed 700 million. Among them, the young people are the “hardest hit areas”, and the myopia rate is the highest in the world and increases year by year (experts point out that the myopia rate is growing at an annual rate of 8%). The myopia rate of high school students and college students in China has exceeded 70%, and the myopia rate of primary school students is also close to 40%. In contrast, the rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in the United States is around 10%.

The World Health Organization estimates that there are about 290 million people with low vision and blindness in the world, and that their low vision is three times that of the blind. Ophthalmologist He Yanling estimates that the current number of blind people in China may exceed 13 million.

On the whole, there are many chains and links in the eye health industry, including hospitals/clinics/optical institutions, medicines and equipment, eyewear and eye protection products, doctors/optometrists/optometrists, etc. So, what is the current status of development of each link? What links still have opportunities for entrepreneurship and investment?

Recently, more than 80 eye health related companies at home and abroad have been sorted out, and six key trends have been discovered, and seven major investment proposals have been summarized.

First, the hospital took the lead in “breaking out” and actively laid out the industrial chain and embraced the Internet.

According to the statistics of the Chinese Medical Association Ophthalmology Branch, the number of ophthalmology specialist hospitals in China has increased year by year in the past few years. By 2015, there will be more than 500, and it is expected to reach 2,000 in 2020.
