Turkey's eyewear market is expected to grow at an impressive pace in the anticipated period due to rising luxury eyewear product adoption in the nation, along with advances in optometry. Additionally, it is anticipated that increasing youth inclination toward high-end and opulent fashion accessories, as well as the rising use of sunglasses as a fashion trend, will fuel the growth of the eyewear market in Turkey from 2022E to 2027F. Additionally, it is anticipated that the eyewear market in Turkey will expand in the upcoming years due to the low cost and easy availability of eyewear lenses. Increased consumption of consumer electronics and appliances influences their technological development.

Turkey's optics market has the potential to grow twofold, and the nation might serve as a significant production hub for various eyewear brands. Since nearly 10% of the Turkish population wears prescription glasses, the country's optic market is less penetrated. According to statistics, Turkey's optics market has a lot of room to expand. It presents particularly significant opportunities in the context of rising eyewear production in the country, thus boosting market growth.

However, the spread of COVID-19 is anticipated to impact the decline of the eyewear market in Turkey due to supply chain disruptions and production halts. Additionally, due to the functional disorders during the lockdown in the nation, many of the top eyewear brands have seen a short-term decline in sales revenue, which has significantly declined the market's expansion in Turkey in the years to come.

The growing urbanization, acceptance of eyewear products, the large number of people who wear corrective lenses, the increased use of silicone hydrogel, and the aging of the population are all predicted to contribute to the growth of the Turkish eyewear market.

The frequency of eye diseases has increased due to the younger generation's increased use of digital gadgets, driving up demand for eyewear and vision-correction products in Turkey. Factors like higher disposable income and a higher standard of living in developing nations like Turkey have pushed the acceptance of high-end, branded eyewear, driving up demand for eyewear.

The need for clear vision and growing visual impairment have increased demand for the Turkish eyewear market. At the moment, the millennial generation is more drawn to and dependent on digital devices like laptops, video games, smartphones, etc. Eye diseases have increased because of the prolonged use of these devices.

Deteriorating eyesight is one of the disease in which vision may suddenly deteriorate as a result of a serious underlying medical condition that may require urgent treatment.. To prevent eye problems, it is advised that older people with diabetes to get their eye checkup done frequently.. As a result, the Turkish eyewear market will benefit from the rise in visual defects and vision impairment.

Increasing Brand Collaborations Aids the Market Growth

The German industry behemoth ZEISS collaborated with Beta Optik's eyewear line, NOVAX. Thus, ZEISS optical lenses will be made in Turkey. The partnership is regarded as a significant development for the sector globally. ZEISS and the German industry giant NOVAX have signed a considerable cooperation agreement. NOVAX is an optical glass brand with 100% domestic capital. According to the agreement, ZEISS, one of the most important businesses in the world founded in 1846, assigned NOVAX the distributorship of eyeglass lenses and optical equipment in Turkey. As a result, Beta Optik, the flagship brand of NOVAX, will serve as the distributor for ZEISS optical shop supplies in Turkey. Additionally, NOVAX will create eyeglass lenses for its German business partner in its Istanbul factory. Increasing  brand collaborations will increase the Turkey eyewear market.

Also, along with local partners, Essilor's offered children and their parents in Istanbul a free eye exam and pair of glasses. Over six days, Essilor volunteered with the help of ten local eye doctors who tested more than 150 kids. Nearly 40% of them required vision correction and received complimentary glasses. Each child also received a pair of sunglasses to shield their eyes from UV rays.
