Customer preferences:
Customers in Malaysia are becoming increasingly concerned about their eye health and are seeking out products and services that can help them maintain good vision. This is driving the demand for eye care products in pharmacies. Additionally, customers are also looking for convenience when it comes to purchasing eye care products. Pharmacies provide a one-stop solution for customers to easily access a wide range of eye care products, making it a preferred choice for many.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the Eye Care (Pharmacies) market in Malaysia is the growing popularity of contact lenses. Contact lenses offer convenience and comfort compared to traditional eyeglasses, which is appealing to many customers. The increasing use of digital devices such as smartphones and computers has also contributed to the demand for contact lenses, as they provide a better visual experience for screen usage. Another trend in the market is the rising awareness of the importance of UV protection for the eyes. Customers are now more conscious about protecting their eyes from harmful UV rays, which can lead to various eye conditions. This has led to an increased demand for sunglasses and other UV protection products in pharmacies.

Local special circumstances:
Malaysia has a large population, and the increasing urbanization and modernization of the country have led to higher disposable incomes. As a result, more people are able to afford eye care products and services, leading to the growth of the Eye Care (Pharmacies) market. Additionally, the government of Malaysia has been actively promoting eye health and conducting awareness campaigns, which has further contributed to the growth of the market.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growing middle-class population in Malaysia, along with increasing disposable incomes, has played a significant role in the development of the Eye Care (Pharmacies) market. As people have more money to spend, they are willing to invest in their eye health and purchase eye care products from pharmacies. Furthermore, the healthcare infrastructure in Malaysia has improved over the years, making eye care products and services more accessible to the general population. In conclusion, the Eye Care (Pharmacies) market in Malaysia is witnessing growth due to customer preferences for convenience and eye health, as well as trends such as the popularity of contact lenses and the increasing awareness of UV protection.
