         This Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment")  amends the Statement on Schedule 13
D (the "Statement"),  filed by LaserSight on January 9, 1998.  Capitalized terms
used herein and not defined  herein shall have the meanings  ascribed to them in
the Statement.

         Item 5(a) of the Statement is hereby amended as follows:

                  (a) As of the date hereof,  LaserSight  beneficially owns that
         number of the Vision 21 Shares, which represents  approximately 5.3% of
         the  12,282,913  Shares  outstanding  as of March  13,  1998  (based on
         information  provided to  LaserSight  by Vision 21).  Thomas  Quinn,  a
         LaserSight   director,   beneficially   owns  46,050  or  0.4%  of  the
         outstanding  Shares (the "Quinn  Shares").  To LaserSight's  knowledge,
         none of its other executive officers or directors beneficially owns any
         Shares.

         Item 5(c) of the Statement  hereby amended and restated in its entirety
         as follows:

                  (c)  Except  for the sale of  168,270  of the Vision 21 Shares
         (the  "Liquidation  Shares")  (representing  approximately  21%  of the
         total) by LaserSight  to Vision 21 on or about March 10, 1998,  neither
         LaserSight  nor, to its  knowledge,  any of its  executive  officers or
         directors  has effected any  transactions  in Shares during the past 60
         days.

                  The  Liquidation  Shares  were  repurchased  by Vision 21 at a
         price  equal to $9.50  per  share in  accordance  with the terms of the
         Stock  Distribution  Agreement.  That agreement  requires  Vision 21 to
         liquidate  the  Vision  21  Shares  by a sale  through  a market  maker
         designated by Vision 21 pursuant to a shelf registration statement or a
         private  placement,  or its  repurchase  of the  Vision 21 Shares  (the
         alternative  utilized to liquidate the  Liquidation  Shares).  To date,
         LaserSight  has received  $1,548,084 of the  $1,598,565  total proceeds
         payable by Vision 21 in  connection  with the  purchase and sale of the
         Liquidation Shares. The Stock Distribution  Agreement provides that the
         remaining balance of the Vision 21 Shares is to be liquidated  pursuant
         to the following schedule (or sooner, at Vision 21's option):

                                Month           Approximate
                                (1998)          Percentage
                                                ----------
                             March...........       26%
                             April...........       35%
                             May.............       39%
                                                    ---
                                Total........      100%
                                                   ====
