<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Although STAAR Surgical Company&rsquo;s (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;)
audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 2, 2015 are not yet complete, the Company anticipates reporting
revenue for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2015 of approximately $16.6 million and $75.0 million, respectively.
The fourth quarter and full year results are below expectations in part due to a negative impact of approximately $0.6 million
from currency, and a combination of orders which the Company was unable to fill by year-end and the timing of an order received
from a large international distributor, totaling approximately $2.0 million. While this order will be booked in the first quarter
of 2015, the Company does not have sufficient visibility regarding first quarter of 2015 anticipated revenue. The Company will
review its financial performance when it reports final results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2015 after
the financial results are finalized and audited. The results are currently expected to be reported the week beginning February
23.</P>

public accounting firm, has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the Company&rsquo;s anticipated
total revenue for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2015. Accordingly, BDO USA, LLP does not express an opinion
or any other form of assurance with respect to this information. The Company&rsquo;s anticipated revenue for the fourth quarter
or the full year ended January 2, 2015 should not be viewed as a substitute for its consolidated financial statements and related
notes prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a complete measure of the Company&rsquo;s operating performance.</P>
