3 ORA (Optiwave Refractive Analysis Current Surgery Tools Unable to Support Future Expectations Current Percentage of Eyes Within 0.50D of Intended Vision Outcome Historical IOL power formulas have modest success, ~50% within 0.5 diopter (D) >40% of patients dissatisfied: need glasses or request secondary enhancement surgery Surgeons bear cost of post-surgery enhancement procedures, which can reduce procedure profit by up to 50% Patients paying out-of-pocket for premium lenses expect spectaclefree, LASIK-like results Surgeons need refractive measurement when it matters most intra-operatively Copyright 2011 WaveTec Vision

5 An intralamellar water impermeable membrane is a barrier to gradient flow of water and nutrients across the cornea. The water gradient is created by evaporation from the tear film. The nutrient gradient is created by the tissue metabolism. Inlay improves vision by extending depth-of-focus Central aperture is a hole in the inlay and has no power Inlay provides an unobstructed pathway for focused light to reach the retina Inlay Design 3.8mm Diameter 8,400 holes (5-11 μm) 5 μm thick Made from Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Inlay in vivo Image courtesy of Dr. Minoru Tomita Shinagawa LASIK Center OQAS Depth of Focus (D): 0.25 Subjective assessment with the OQAS device shows this eye has only 0.25D of depth of focus. Optical Quality Analysis System - Visiometrics (Spain)

6 Without Inlay: SLR camera simulation of vision with a 4.0 mm pupil feet, f-stop 5.6 With Inlay: SLR camera simulation of vision with a 1.6 mm pupil feet, f-stop 22 Subjective assessment with the OQAS device shows the eye with the inlay has >2.50D of depth of focus. Optical Quality Analysis System - Visiometrics (Spain)

7 Surgical Procedures Pocket Emmetropic KAMRA (PEK) Epithelium Post-LASIK KAMRA (PLK) and Planned LASIK KAMRA 2 Step Epithelium (PLK2) 100μm Pocket Pocket LASIK Flap Endothelium Endothelium Description: A pocket is created in the stroma at a depth of μm. The inlay is then inserted in the pocket. Suitable for: Emmetropic Presbyopes (Naturally occurring or pseudophakic) Description: A LASIK treatment is performed under a 100μm flap. A minimum of one month later, a pocket is created 100μm under the LASIK interface, and the inlay is inserted into the pocket. Suitable for: Ametropic presbyopes Post-LASIK presbyopes

8 There is a small reduction in photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity however scores remains within normal limits at 24 months post-op. Ultimately the reduction is minor when compared to the benefits of the inlay ** Pre N = M N = M N = 442 *Data on file at AcuFocus *Data on file at AcuFocus Pre N = M N = M N = 442 *

9 Long-Term Results: Uncorrected Near VA at 5 Years UCNVA improved from a mean of J8 to J2 in the inlay eye (IE) between preop and 1 month. This result is maintained out to 5 years. Vision in the inlay eye and with both eyes (BE) is unaffected by the progression of presbyopia. UCNVA in the untreated other eye (OE) shows an mean loss of 1 line over the same time period. ETDRS letters UCNVA Month IE OU Mean Loss* Virtually Undetectable In social circumstances the inlay is virtually undetectable even in light colored eyes The inlay is only visible: Bright light conditions either from: An oblique angle up close, or Straight on if the fellow eye pupil is smaller than 3.8mm Data courtesy of Günther Grabner, MD
