Presently unknown side effects related to the use of our femtosecond laser could emerge in the future.

Use of the IntraLase FS laser to create the LASIK flap is a relatively new technique. Consequently there is no long term follow up data beyond five years that might reveal unknown side effects or complications associated specifically with this technique. The possibility of unfavorable side effects, and any concomitant adverse publicity, could seriously harm our business. In addition to the potential side effects and complications associated with LASIK generally, some LASIK surgeons have observed incidents of transient light sensitivity in patients treated with our system, although this has affected only a small percentage of patients and appears to resolve quickly with treatment. Any future reported adverse outcomes or pattern of side effects involving the use of our laser specifically, or with respect to LASIK procedures generally, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
