Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of STAAR Surgical Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Commission. In accordance with those rules and regulations certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in Comprehensive Financial Statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 29, 2017 was derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2017. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. Each of the Company’s fiscal reporting periods ends on the Friday nearest to the quarter ending date and generally consists of 13 weeks. Unless the context indicates otherwise “we,” “us,” the “Company,” and “STAAR” refer to STAAR Surgical Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in 000’s):
|  | June 29, 2018 |  |  | December 29, 2017 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 21,246 |  |  | $ | 18,520 |  |  | $ | 13,438 |
Restricted cash included in other long-term assets |  |  | 121 |  |  |  | 121 |  |  |  | 120 |
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows |  | $ | 21,367 |  |  | $ | 18,641 |  |  | $ | 13,558 |
The Company has restricted cash of approximately $121,000 set aside as collateral for a standby letter of credit required by the California Department of Public Health for unforeseen future regulatory costs related to the decommissioning of certain manufacturing equipment.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Revenue On December 30, 2017 (beginning of FY 2018), the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ ASU ” ) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and its subsequent amendments: (i) ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date”; (ii) ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing;” (iii) ASU No. 2016-11, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting”; (iv) ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”; and (v) ASU No. 2016-20, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606”, using the modified retrospective method, and determined that there was no cumulative effect adjustment on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company determined that the adoption of the new standard did not materially impact the revenue recognition on its Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company recognizes revenue when its contractual performance obligations with customers are satisfied. The Company’s performance obligations are generally limited to single sales orders with product shipping to the customer within a month of receipt of the sales order. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point-in-time when control of its products transfers to the customer, which is typically upon shipment (as discussed below). The Company presents sales tax and similar taxes it collects from its customers on a net basis (excluded from revenues). The Company sells certain injector parts to an unrelated customer and supplier (collectively referred to as “supplier”) whereby these injector part sales are either made as a final sale to the supplier or, are sold to be combined with an acrylic IOL by the supplier into finished goods inventory (a preloaded acrylic IOL). These finished goods are then sold back to the Company at an agreed upon, contractual price. The Company makes a profit margin on either type of sale with the supplier and each type of sale is made under separate purchase and sales orders between the two parties resulting in cash settlement for the orders sold or repurchased. For parts that are sold as a final sale, the Company recognizes a sale and those sales are classified as other product sales in total net sales. For the injector parts that are sold to be combined with an acrylic IOL into finished goods, the Company records the transaction at its carrying value deferring any profit margin as contra-inventory, until the finished goods inventory is sold to an end-customer (not the supplier) at which point the Company recognizes revenues. For all sales, the Company is considered the principal in the transaction as the Company is the party providing specified goods it has control over prior to when control is transferred to the customer. Cost of sales includes cost of production, freight and distribution, and inventory provisions, net of any purchase discounts. Shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer obtains control of the goods are recognized as fulfillment costs. The Company generally permits returns of product if the product is returned within the time allowed by its return policies and records an allowance for estimated returns at the time revenue is recognized. The Company’s allowance for estimated returns considers historical trends and experience, the impact of new product launches, the entry of a competitor, availability of timely and pertinent information and the various terms and arrangements offered, including sales with extended credit terms. For estimated returns, sales are reported net of estimated returns and cost of sales are reported net of estimated returns that can be resold. On the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the balances associated for estimated sales returns are as follows:
|  | June 29, 2018 |  |  | December 29, 2017 |
Estimated returns - inventory (1) |  | $ | 462 |  |  | $ | 534 |
Allowance for sales returns |  |  | 2,582 |  |  |  | 2,546 |
| (1) | Recognized in inventories, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment history and credit worthiness, as determined by the Company’s review of its customers’ current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses and uncollectible accounts based upon its historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. Amounts determined to be uncollectible are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company disaggregates its revenue into the following categories: non-consignment sales, consignment sales and royalty income. Non-consignment Sales The Company recognizes revenue from non-consignment product sales at a point-in-time when control has been transferred, which is typically at shipping point, except for certain customers and for the STAAR Japan subsidiary, which is typically recognized when the customer receives the product. The Company does not have significant deferred revenues as of June 29, 2018 or June 30, 2017, as delivery to the customer is generally made within the same or the next day of shipment. The Company also enters into certain strategic cooperation agreements with customers in which, as consideration for certain commitments made by the customer, including minimum purchase commitments, the Company agrees, among other things, to pay for marketing, educational training and general support of the Company’s products. The provisions in these arrangements allow for these payments to be made directly to the customer or payments can be made directly to a third party for distinct marketing, educational training and general support services provided to or on behalf of the customer by the third party. For payments the Company makes to another party, or reimburses the customer for distinct marketing and support services, the Company recognizes these payments as sales and marketing expense as incurred. These strategic cooperation agreements are generally for periods of 12 months with quarterly minimum purchase commitments. The Company recognizes sales and marketing expenses in the period in which it expects the customer will achieve its minimum purchase commitment, generally quarterly, and any unpaid amounts are recorded in Other Current Liabilities in “Other” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, see Note 6. Reimbursements made directly to the customer for general marketing incentives are treated as a reduction in revenues. The Company’s performance obligations generally occur in the same quarter as the shipment of product. Since the payments for distinct or non-distinct services occur within the quarter corresponding with the purchases made by the customer and the shipments made by the Company to that customer, there is no remaining performance obligation by the Company to the customer. Accordingly, there are no deferred revenues associated with these types of arrangements as of June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017. Consignment Sales The Company’s products are marketed to ophthalmic surgeons, hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers or vision centers, and distributors. IOLs and ICLs may be offered to surgeons and hospitals on a consignment basis. The Company maintains title and risk of loss on consigned inventory and recognizes revenue for consignment inventory at a point-in-time when the Company is notified that the lenses have been implanted, thus completing the performance obligation. Royalty Income From time to time, the Company licenses its patents to third parties in connection with the manufacture of product. One type of licensing contract requires that the licensee pay the Company a quarterly royalty based on a percentage of the licensee’s quarterly sales. The Company recognizes the revenue at a point-in-time, typically quarterly based on various factors including information from the licensee, historical performance and contract minimums; royalty income was as follows (in thousands):
|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 29, 2018 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | June 29, 2018 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |
Royalty income (1) |  | $ | 149 |  |  | $ | 128 |  |  | $ | 306 |  |  | $ | 259 |
| (1) | Shown as a separate line item in other income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Another type of licensing contract requires that the licensee pay the Company a lump sum royalty once certain milestones are achieved, such as upon the first commercial sale of a product incorporating a licensed patent or technology (performance obligation occurs over a period of time); no such income was recognized for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 , respectively. See Note 9 for additional information on disaggregation of revenues, geographic sales information and product sales. The following table summarizes the impact of adopting Topic 606 on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for June 29, 2018 (in 000’s) (see also Note 13):
|  | As Reported |  |  | Adjustments |  |  | Balances without the adoption of 606 |
Accounts receivable trade, net |  | $ | 26,233 |  |  | $ | (2,582 | ) |  | $ | 23,651 |
Total current assets |  |  | 66,925 |  |  |  | (2,582 | ) |  |  | 64,343 |

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements On December 30, 2017 (beginning of FY 2018), the Company adopted ASU 2017-09 “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting,” which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements, provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. On December 30, 2017 (beginning of FY 2018), the Company adopted ASU 2017-07, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” The standard requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside of operating profit. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, see Note 7 for additional information. On December 30, 2017 (beginning of FY 2018), the Company adopted ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory”, which removes the prohibition in ASC 740 against the immediate recognition of the current and deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory, using the modified retrospective method, and determined that there was no cumulative effect adjustment on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The adoption of ASU 2016-16 did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. On December 30, 2017 (beginning of FY 2018), the Company adopted ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which clarifies how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months in the statement of financial position. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 also requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. As of June 29, 2018, the Company’s evaluation of the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is in process. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” provides an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recorded. This is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this standard as of December 29, 2018 (beginning of Fiscal Year 2019) and is currently evaluating the impact on ASU 2018-02 will have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” aligns the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees similar to employees. This is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this standard as of December 29, 2018 (beginning of Fiscal Year 2019) and is currently evaluating the impact on ASU 2018-07 will have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

If the entity has different policies for different types of revenue transactions, the policy for each material type of transaction is generally disclosed. If a sales transaction has multiple element arrangements (for example, delivery of multiple products, services or the rights to use assets) the disclosure may indicate the accounting policy for each unit of accounting as well as how units of accounting are determined and valued. The disclosure may encompass important judgment as to appropriateness of principles related to recognition of revenue. The disclosure also may indicate the entity's treatment of any unearned or deferred revenue that arises from the transaction. + References Reference 1: http://fasb.org/us-gaap/role/ref/otherTransitionRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 3 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=84158767&loc=d3e18780-107790 Reference 2: http://fasb.org/us-gaap/role/ref/otherTransitionRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=84158767&loc=d3e18726-107790 Reference 3: http://fasb.org/us-gaap/role/ref/otherTransitionRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 4 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=84158767&loc=d3e18823-107790 + Details
