<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Any investment in the notes involves a high degree of risk. Before you decide whether to purchase the notes, you should carefully consider
the risks described below and all of the information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the risks described under &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our Annual Report on <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;10-K</FONT> for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2017, and in other documents that we subsequently file with the SEC that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement. The risks and
uncertainties described below and incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to
us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the risks described actually occur, the trading price of the notes could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Related to This Offering </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The notes are
obligations exclusively of Edwards Lifesciences Corporation and not of our subsidiaries, and payment to holders of the notes will be structurally subordinated to the claims of our subsidiaries&#146; creditors. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are obligations exclusively of Edwards Lifesciences Corporation and are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. Our operations
are primarily conducted through our subsidiaries, which are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to pay any amounts due under the notes, or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans, distributions or
other payments to us. Our rights (and hence the rights of our creditors, including holders of the notes) to participate in any distribution of assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization or otherwise will be subject to the prior
claims of that subsidiary&#146;s creditors (including trade creditors), except to the extent that our claims as a creditor of that subsidiary may be recognized. As a result, the notes are &#147;structurally subordinated&#148; to all existing and
future debt, trade creditors, and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. As of March&nbsp;31, 2018, our subsidiaries had approximately $599.6&nbsp;million of outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities, including current liabilities. The
indenture governing the notes does not restrict our subsidiaries&#146; ability to incur additional unsecured indebtedness. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The notes will be
effectively junior to secured indebtedness that we may issue in the future and, if a default occurs, we may not have sufficient funds to fulfill our obligations under the notes. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The notes are our unsecured general obligation, ranking equally with other senior unsecured indebtedness. As of the date hereof, we had no
secured debt outstanding. The indenture governing the notes permits us and our subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness including secured debt, subject to certain limitations. The notes will be effectively junior to any secured debt that we may
issue in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing such future indebtedness. Holders of any secured debt that we issue in the future may foreclose on the assets securing that debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed
property available for payment of unsecured debt, including the notes. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up, assets that secure any of our indebtedness will be available to pay obligations on the notes only
after all debt secured by those assets has been repaid in full. Holders of the notes will participate in our remaining assets ratably with all of our unsecured and unsubordinated creditors, including our trade creditors. If there are not sufficient
assets remaining to pay all these creditors, all or a portion of the notes then outstanding would remain unpaid. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The limited covenants in the
indenture governing the notes and the terms of the notes do not restrict our ability to incur additional unsecured debt or prohibit us from taking certain other actions that could negatively impact holders of the notes. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are not restricted under the terms of the notes or the indenture governing the notes from incurring substantial additional unsecured

repurchase or prepay our indebtedness or capital stock, make investments, or pay dividends or make other payments in respect of our common stock or other securities ranking junior to the notes. In addition, the indenture governing the notes does not
require us to achieve or maintain any specific financial ratios or minimum levels relating to our financial position, liquidity or results of operations. Our ability to recapitalize, incur additional debt and take a number of other actions that are
not limited by the terms of the indenture and the notes could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the notes when due. </P>

occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event. We may not have sufficient funds, or be able to arrange sufficient financing, to repurchase the notes at that time, particularly if the Change of Control Triggering Event results in a similar
repurchase requirement for, or results in the acceleration of, our other <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">then-existing</FONT> indebtedness. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our

scheduled payments of principal and interest with respect to our indebtedness, including the notes, will depend on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and
other factors beyond our control. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>An increase in interest rates could result in a decrease in the relative value of the notes. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In general, as market interest rates rise, notes bearing interest at a fixed rate generally decline in value because the premium, if any, over
market interest rates will decline. Consequently, if you purchase the notes and market interest rates increase, the market values of your notes may decline. We cannot predict the future level of market interest rates. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Changes in our credit ratings may adversely affect the value of the notes. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The major debt rating agencies routinely evaluate our debt. These ratings are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell the notes,
inasmuch as the ratings do not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor, are limited in scope, and do not address all material risks relating to an investment in the notes, but rather reflect only the view of each rating
agency at the time the rating is issued. The ratings are based on information furnished to the ratings agencies by us and information obtained by the ratings agencies from other sources. An explanation of the significance of such rating may be
obtained from the applicable rating agency. There can be no assurance that our credit ratings will remain in effect for any given period of time or that our ratings will not be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by any or all rating agencies,
if, in each rating agency&#146;s judgment, circumstances so warrant. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under further review for a downgrade, could affect the market
values of the notes and increase our corporate borrowing costs. </P>

offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell the notes in the open market. These transactions may include short sales and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of
a greater principal amount of notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. The underwriters must close out any short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are
concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters&#146; purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or
maintaining the market price of the notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the notes. As a result, the prices of the notes may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the prices of the notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will
not be discontinued without notice. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Settlement </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:7%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the closing date specified on the cover page of this
prospectus supplement, which will be T+7. Pursuant to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Rule&nbsp;15c6-1</FONT> under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any
such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes more than two business days prior to the specified closing date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+7, to specify
an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes more than two business days prior to the specified closing date should consult their own advisor. </P>

may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. Certain of the underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with us routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge,
their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, such underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default
swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters
and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short

offering of securities, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the securities. This may include <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">over-allotments</FONT> or
short sales of the securities, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than were sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">over-allotments</FONT>
or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">over-allotment</FONT> option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for
or purchasing securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization
transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time. </P>

condition that the purchase of the securities covered by the delayed delivery contracts will not at the time of delivery be prohibited under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States to which the purchaser is subject. The underwriters and

into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement so indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the
third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or any selling stockholder, as the case may be, or
borrowed from us or any selling stockholder or others, as the case may be, to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of common stock, and may use securities received from us or any selling stockholder in settlement of those
derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of our common stock. In addition, we or any selling stockholder may loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities using this
