On February 2, 2005, the Company filed with the SEC a Form 8-K. Subsequent to the filing, the Company discovered that a date in the fourth paragraph of the filing was incorrectly reported as January 14, 2004. The correct date is January 14, 2005. Below is the corrected paragraph in its entirety.
On December 16, 2004, the Company submitted to the FDA a supplement to the Company’s investigational device exemptions application for the STAAR Myopic Implantable Contact Lens (ICL™). The supplement requested permission for each of the active clinical centers to continue enrollment of eyes in the ICL clinical investigation while the pre-market approval is pending with the FDA so that the physicians may continue to expand on their clinical experience with implantation of the ICL. On January 14, 2005, the FDA approved the supplement allowing 18 investigational sites to enroll a combined total of 75 additional eyes each month.
