This excerpt taken from the EYE 10-K filed Mar 1, 2007. Fraud
and Abuse. We are subject to various federal and state laws
pertaining to health care fraud and abuse, including anti-kickback laws,
physician self-referral laws, and false claims laws. Violations of these laws
are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in some
instances, imprisonment and exclusion from participation in federal and state
health care programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Administration
(VA) health programs and TRICARE. Although we believe that our operations are
in material compliance with such laws, we can give no assurances as these laws
are far-reaching and their interpretation is subject to change. As a result, we could be required to alter
one or more of our practices to remain in compliance with these laws. The
occurrence of one or more violations of these laws could result in a material
adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
