Eyewear in Turkey

Eyewear in 2021: The big picture
Sales of eyewear saw a strong decline in the first year of the pandemic, as store closures, extended time inside the home, economic instability, and lack of travel and tourism shook the category. Consumers were largely fearful of the virus and avoided unnecessary trips outside the home, including postponing doctor's appointments.
Key trends in 2021
Consumers in Turkey are spending an increasing amount of time using digital devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and laptops, not just at work but also during their leisure time or when travelling. This is leading to a growing number of people experiencing eye and vision problems, leading to greater demand for prescription spectacles and contact lenses.
Competitive landscape
The category leaders maintained their lead in each category in 2020, benefitting from their wide product assortment, ubiquity in optical shops, and reputation. Consumers became more health concerned in 2020 and preferred to buy from well-known, tried-and-tested brands, even if these were more expensive.
Retailing developments
Optical shops remained the main distribution channel for eyewear in Turkey in 2020. The channel is highly fragmented and consists of both large chains and smaller independent retailers.
What next for eyewear?
Over the forecast period, all categories are expected to see good growth as the country continues to recovery from the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. As confidence returns, consumers will be more willing to attend eye health appointments (boosting sales of prescription lenses), visit the shops, and spend money on non-essential products, all of which will boost value sales.
