Newly released market study: Contact Lenses in Russia

From: Fast Market Research, Inc.
Published: Fri Apr 10 2015


Contact lenses continued to have the highest growth in eyewear in Russia with 16% value share and 7% volume share. Strong and stable growth was seen after the economic recession of 2008-2009, when contact lenses were considered a more modern product for people with poor eyesight compared to traditional spectacles. This dynamic is expected to continue as more people are ready to try wearing contact lenses. The distributors and manufacturers of contact lenses compete aggressively in Russia, arranging active marketing campaigns compared to the producers of other eyewear products. Major optical retailers offer the service of free consultation by ophthalmologist to find the best contact lenses at the point of sale. However, many Russians still prefer to wear contact lenses in addition to traditional spectacles, which are worn most frequently.
