Advances, such as the launch of dynamic soft contact lenses integrated with advanced technology, have propelled the growth of the market. For instance, in July 2022, Mojo Vision announced that the company has conducted one-eye testing on its latest Mojo Lens prototype. It is an augmented reality (AR) contact lens, featuring medical-grade micro-batteries, micro-LED display, new hardware, and technologies, such as communications, eye tracking, and software.

The growth of the market is being further driven by the increasing popularity of cosmetic and colored lenses for aesthetic reasons.
