Some of the key facts of the Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration Market Report:
In 2023, the United States held the largest market share for Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Wet AMD) among the 7MM, with a value of around USD 2,599 million. This market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% through 2036.
In August 2026, The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Lytenava™ (bevacizumab-vikg) for the treatment of patients with neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The therapy is an ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab, a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor, delivered through intravitreal injection. By inhibiting VEGF-A, bevacizumab helps reduce endothelial cell proliferation, abnormal blood-vessel formation, and vascular permeability, thereby targeting key mechanisms responsible for vision loss associated with nAMD.
In June 2026, Clinical development in the Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Wet AMD) landscape continued to progress, with ongoing research into gene therapies, sustained-release drug delivery systems, biosimilars, and next-generation anti-VEGF treatments. These investigational approaches are focused on delivering longer-lasting therapeutic benefits, minimizing the need for frequent intravitreal injections, and maintaining or improving patients’ visual outcomes.
In April 2026, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced that the US FDA approved extending dosing intervals for EYLEA HD (aflibercept) up to every 20 weeks in wet AMD and Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) patients after one year of response, supported by 2-year data from the PULSAR and PHOTON trials showing sustained efficacy and safety.
In February 2026, Several biopharmaceutical companies continued to advance Phase II and Phase III clinical trials for next-generation Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Wet AMD) treatments. These investigational therapies include long-acting anti-VEGF agents and gene therapies aimed at reducing the need for frequent intravitreal injections while preserving or improving visual outcomes.
In January 2026, The FDA issued a third complete response letter (CRL) for Outlook Therapeutics’ ONS-5010/Lytenava, intended for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD). The agency advised the company to submit confirmatory evidence demonstrating efficacy, noting that the additional mechanistic and natural-history data included in the resubmitted biologics license application (BLA) did not alter its earlier review conclusions. Age-related macular degeneration develops when the macula—a central part of the retina responsible for sharp vision—sustains damage. Approximately 10% of AMD cases progress to the wet form, also known as neovascular AMD, which causes vision loss due to abnormal blood vessel growth between retinal cell layers.
In September 2025, Findings from the AVONELLE-X extension study (NCT04777201) and the Phase IIIb/IV SALWEEN trial revealed that Roche’s Vabysmo (faricimab) delivered significant clinical benefits for patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV). The company stated that Vabysmo marks an important step forward in treating these conditions, addressing unmet needs in vision care and supporting sustained disease management.
In July 2025, EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: EYPT), focused on developing and commercializing innovative therapies for serious retinal diseases, announced the completion of patient enrollment in its Phase 3 pivotal program with the full enrollment of the LUCIA trial. LUCIA is the second of two identical ongoing pivotal non-inferiority studies assessing DURAVYU™ for treating wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD). The first pivotal study, LUGANO, finished enrollment in May 2025. More than 400 patients were enrolled and randomized in LUCIA within seven months, making DURAVYU one of the fastest-enrolling Phase 3 pivotal programs in wet AMD.
In April 2025, Outlook Therapeutics announced that the U.S. FDA has accepted the resubmitted Biologics License Application (BLA) for ONS-5010 (bevacizumab-vikg), an investigational ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab intended for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD).
In March 2025, Opthea decided to halt its COAST and ShORe clinical trials for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) after the COAST study failed to achieve its primary endpoint. The company also expedited the release of topline data from the ShORe trial, which similarly did not meet its primary goal of improving best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from baseline to week 52. The global Phase 3 ShORe study assessed the efficacy and safety of intravitreal 2 mg sozinibercept administered every 4 or 8 weeks alongside 0.5 mg ranibizumab every 4 weeks, compared to ranibizumab monotherapy.
The Wet AMD market is evolving as treatment focus shifts from conventional anti-VEGF therapies (e.g., ranibizumab, aflibercept, and bevacizumab) toward longer-acting and innovative approaches, with high-dose formulations such as EYLEA HD (aflibercept), sustained delivery systems like ranibizumab (LUCENTIS) , and emerging gene therapies driving adoption due to improved durability, reduced treatment burden, and better patient compliance.
Regional market dynamics show the United States leading in revenue, while Japan and European Union markets demonstrate steady growth, supported by increasing disease awareness, aging populations, and rising uptake of advanced and long-acting treatment options.
According to DelveInsight’s estimates, the total prevalent cases of Wet AMD in the 7MM were approximately 3 million in 2025.
The age-specific distribution of Wet AMD in the US demonstrates a substantial increase with advancing age, with the highest prevalence observed among individuals aged ≥85 years, highlighting the growing epidemiological burden in the elderly population and the need for timely diagnosis and management to reduce vision-related complication.
In 2025, early and intermediate AMD accounted for the majority of stage-specific AMD cases, whereas late-stage AMD (nAMD and geographic atrophy) represented a significantly smaller proportion, highlighting that most patients are diagnosed before progression to advanced disease stages, in Japan.
