Eye care in Saudi Arabia is expected to demonstrate robust retail current value growth of 5% in 2026, significantly outpacing the country's real GDP increase of 1% and remaining resilient in the context of moderate inflation at 2%. The attractiveness of eye care is underscored by stable demand for over-the-counter products as consumer expenditure rises in tandem with an expanding population of 36.7 million, with sales set to reach SAR353 million. Strong growth is anchored by persistent drivers including digital device use, environmental conditions, and the rapid expansion of digitally enabled pharmacy networks, which together ensure high accessibility and will support future momentum. To succeed, brands must prioritise digital integration, forge institutional partnerships, invest in advanced formulations, and align closely with pharmacy-led healthcare delivery to address evolving patient needs and shifting purchasing behaviours.
