                            STAAR SURGICAL COMPANY

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              SEPTEMBER 29, 1995
                                        

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     ---------------------

     The accompanying financial statements consolidate the accounts of the
     Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Assets and
     liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at rates of exchange in
     effect at the close of the period. Revenues and expenses are translated at
     the weighted average of exchange rates in effect during the year. Net
     foreign currency translation and transaction gains and losses were not
     material. Investments in affiliates and joint ventures are accounted for
     using the equity method of accounting.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 consolidated financial
     statements to conform with the 1995 presentation.

2.   REVENUE RECOGNITION
     -------------------

     The Company records revenues from product sales to hospitals and physicians
     principally upon implant of IOL's from cataract surgery.  Revenues from
     product sales to distributors (primarily export sales) are recorded upon
     shipment.  Revenue from license and technology agreements is recorded as
     income in accordance with the terms of such agreements.

3.   EXPORT SALES
     ------------

     During the nine months ended September 29, 1995 and September 30, 1994, the
     Company had export sales primarily to Europe and South Africa, South
     America, Australia and Japan, of approximately $5,373,339 and $2,865,000.

4.   INVENTORIES
     -----------

     Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market
     (net realizable value) and consisted of the following at September 29, 1995
     and December 30, 1994.

</TABLE>
5.   PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
     -----------------------------

     Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.

     Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated
     useful lives, which are generally not greater than five years.  Leasehold
     improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or estimated useful
     life, if shorter.

                            STAAR SURGICAL COMPANY
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              SEPTEMBER 29, 1995
                                        

6.   PATENTS AND LICENSES
     --------------------

     The Company capitalizes the costs of acquiring patents and licenses as well
     as the legal costs of successfully defending its rights to these patents.
     Amortization is computed on the straight-line basis over the estimated
     useful lives, which range from 8 to 12 years.

7.   INCOME PER SHARE
     ----------------

     Income per share computations are based on the weighted average number of
     common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period.
     Common equivalent shares include the dilutive effects from the assumed
     exercise of stock options and warrants computed using the treasury stock
     method.  The shares used to calculate primary earnings per share were
     13,335,359 for September 29, 1995 and 13,005,984 for September 30, 1994.
     The shares used to calculate fully diluted earnings per share were
     13,425,071 for September 29, 1995 and 13,045,319 for September 30, 1994.

8.   CASH EQUIVALENTS
     ----------------

     For purposes of the cash flow statement, the Company considers all highly
     liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be
     cash equivalents.

9.   INTERIM ACCOUNTING POLICY
     -------------------------

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do
     not include all the information and footnotes required by generally
     accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and
     should, therefore, be read in conjunction with the audited financial
     statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
     year ended December 30, 1994.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated
     financial statements contain all adjustments (of a normal recurring nature)
     necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position
     as of September 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994, its consolidated statements
     of income for the three and nine months ended September 29, 1995 and
     September 30, 1994 and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months
     ended September 29, 1995 and September 30, 1994.

</TABLE>

REVENUES:
- ---------

The Company's revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 1995 were $24.7
million compared to $18.4 million for nine months ended September 30, 1994, a
28.2% increase.  The primary reason for the increase is expanding international
sales in Europe, South Africa, Australia, and South America; and continued
acceptance of STAAR's  product in the U.S.  The Company did not report royalty
payments for the nine months ended September 29, 1995 and expect royalties to be
minimal, if any, for the remainder of the year.  However, the Company does
expect to report royalty income in 1996.

COST OF SALES:
- --------------

Cost of Sales increased to 24.4% and 24.1% of revenues for the three and nine
months ended September 29, 1995 from 23.8% and 22.8% of revenues for the same
periods ended September 30, 1994.  The primary reason for the increase was
reduced pricing of the Company's products in the domestic market.

GENERAL & ADMINISTRATIVE (G&A):
- -------------------------------

G&A expense decreased to 14.9% and 14.4% of revenues for the three months and
nine months ended September 29, 1995 from 15.6% and 18.7% of revenues for the
same periods ended September 30, 1994.  The decrease is the result of continued
focus in controlling G&A expense.

MARKETING AND SELLING (M&S):
- ----------------------------

Marketing and selling expenses decreased to 28.0% and increased 30.7% of
revenues for the three months and nine months ended September 29, 1995 compared
to 30.2% and 29.4% of revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1994.  Increases are a result of additional staffing internationally in order to
achieve current and expected increases in international revenues as well as a
result of increased advertising costs.

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D):
- -------------------------------

R&D expense decreased to 8.6% and 9.2% of revenues for the three and nine months
ending September 29, 1995 compared to 9.6% and 10.4% of revenues for the three
and nine months ending September 30, 1994.  The Company expects to continue to
spend around ten percent of revenues for the continued development and approval
of products currently in the development stage and for new products in the
research stage.

INCOME TAXES
- ------------

Based on current and expected income levels, the Company expects to record an
income tax benefit in the fourth quarter as a result of the recognition of the
deferred tax asset through the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

As of September 29, 1995, the Company had a current ratio of 3.3:1, net working
capital of $16.3 million and net equity of $26.6 million compared to December
30, 1994 when the Company's ratio was 3.4:1, its net working capital was $14.2
million, and its net equity was $22.0 million.

The Company used approximately $1.5 million of its working capital during the
first nine months of 1995 to buy back approximately 176,500 shares of its common
stock.  The Company, as management determines feasible, will continue to buy
back up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock, options and/or warrants.

The Company expects to continue to be profitable in the future and the Company
believes that all future cash flow needs will come from cash generated by
operations or debt financing. Should additional funding be needed the Company
believes that as long as the financial position of the Company remains constant,
these funds could be obtained.



PART II - ITEM 1


OTHER INFORMATION
- -----------------

On April 13, 1995, the Company filed a lawsuit against Alcon Laboratories, Inc.
"Alcon" in Los Angeles Superior Court concerning breach of contract, specific
performance and other items relating to Alcon's license with the Company, Patent
Number 4,573,998, entitled "Methods for Implantation of Deformable Intraocular
Lens Structures".  This followed an April 12, 1995 lawsuit against the Company
from Alcon in the U.S. District Court in Delaware, concerning the same patent
for non-infringement and other patent related matters.  The Company filed a
motion in Delaware to dismiss the Alcon complaint or as an alternative, transfer
the actions to California.  In October 1995, the motion to transfer the action
to California was granted.

On July 31, 1995, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California
ruled the Company's Antitrust action against Allergan Medical Optics should go
forward.  In a companion ruling the Court further lifted its stay of discovery
of infringement, patent validity, and other issues concerning the U.S. Patent
Number 4,681,102 (known as the 102 Patent).  The Antitrust action and discovery
on these patent issues had previously been stayed pending a determination of
ownership of the 102 Patent.  During the proceedings the Court also confirmed a
June 19, 1995 jury ruling that Microtech is the owner of the 102 Patent.  The
102 Patent relates to an insertion device, known as the Bartell Shooter which in
the past was used by some surgeons during cataract surgery.  The Court did not
determine any issue as to infringement of the 102 Patent.  The Company believes
the 102 Patent will be deemed to be invalid and unenforceable.
