Segmentation by type categorizes EDOF lenses into three technical families, each with distinct optical architectures and market implications. Diffractive EDOF lenses use concentric rings to extend the focal range and represent the largest share, approximately 45 %, due to their proven visual outcomes and broad surgeon acceptance. Refractive‑profile EDOF lenses, which rely on aspheric surface shaping, hold about 35 % of the market; they are favored for their smoother transition between distance and intermediate vision and lower incidence of dysphotopsia. The smallest yet rapidly growing niche, hybrid EDOF lenses, combines diffractive and refractive elements and accounts for roughly 20 % of sales, driven by ongoing clinical trials that suggest superior intermediate vision performance. These type‑specific dynamics influence R&D investment, manufacturing complexity, and pricing, thereby directly affecting the overall market valuation.
