Eye Health Landscape Research
Disease Burden, Treatment Trends & Consumer Care Opportunities

Objective
Build a foundational research base on the current eye health landscape - covering disease prevalence, emerging treatment approaches, and next-generation consumer care ingredients - to inform the team's future product and category planning.

Pillar 1: Eye Disease Landscape

1.1 Epidemiology Overview

* Markets: Globe, CN, US and EU, other regions nice to have
* Identify Top 15 high-prevalence eye conditions
* Data points per condition: definition, how many people affected, crowd characteristics, disease consequences, speed of onset, is it growing or stable, key risk factors

1.2 Unmet Needs - Where Are the Gaps?

* For each condition: can be cured or not? what treatments/prevention methods exist today, what do patients/doctors still struggle with
* What are patients and consumers looking for that isn't well addressed yet

1.3 What's New in Treatment

* Emerging approaches gaining attention (e.g., low-dose atropine for myopia control, new dry eye therapies)
* Focus on what the approach is and why it matters, not deep clinical/technical detail
* Which companies or research groups are driving these, and how far along are they

Deliverable: A summary with a one-page overview table per condition (prevalence, current care, gaps, what's emerging). Sources: published articles (PubMed), WHO/health authority statistics, credible industry summaries

Pillar 2: Consumer Eye Care - Ingredients & Trends

2.1 Next-Generation Ingredients

* What new or trending active ingredients are appearing in consumer eye care products (e.g. otc drugs, supplements) in US,EU and China?
* For each: mechanism behind, what does it claim to do, and is there published research to support it, ingredient source, available market
* Simple rating: strong evidence / some evidence / early-stage only

Deliverable: An ingredient landscape table (ingredient, function, evidence level, where it's used) + a short trend summary
