Company and Nature of Business | Note 1. The Company and Nature of Business Description of Business Sight Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2010 and is headquartered in Menlo Park, California. The Company is an ophthalmic medical device company focused on the development and commercialization of surgical and nonsurgical technologies for the treatment of prevalent eye diseases. The Company's product portfolio aligns with its two reportable operating segments: Surgical Glaucoma and Dry Eye. The products for the Surgical Glaucoma segment include the OMNI® Surgical System ("OMNI"), which is an implant-free glaucoma surgery technology indicated to reduce intraocular pressure in adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, the world's leading cause of irreversible blindness, and the SION® Surgical Instrument ("SION"), a manually operated device used in ophthalmic surgical procedures to excise trabecular meshwork. The product portfolio for the Dry Eye segment consists of the TearCare® System ("TearCare") for ophthalmologists and optometrists. TearCare is a wearable eyelid technology for adult patients with evaporative dry eye disease due to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) when used in conjunction with manual expression of the meibomian glands, enabling clearance of gland obstructions by physicians to address the leading cause of dry eye disease. Significant Risks and Uncertainties Since inception, the Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $294.8 million and recorded a net loss of $55.5 million for the year then ended and expects to incur additional losses in the future. If the Company’s revenue levels from its products are not sufficient or if the Company is unable to secure additional funding when desired, the Company may need to delay the development of its products, scale back its business and operations, or change its business strategy. The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity will satisfy its working capital and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the issuance of its financial statements. Any failure to generate increased revenue, achieve improved gross margins, or control operating costs could require the Company to raise additional capital through equity or debt financing. Such additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and could require the Company to modify, delay, or abandon some of its planned future expansion or expenditures or reduce some of its ongoing operating costs, which could harm its business, operating results, financial condition, and ability to achieve its intended business objectives.
