     This  amendment is filed  pursuant to Rule 13d-2(a) and amends the Schedule
13 D filed on  August 3,  1998,  Amendment  No. 1 filed on  December  22,  1998,
Amendment No. 2 filed on January 25, 1999, Amendment No. 3 filed on February 16,
1999,  Amendment  No. 4 filed on April 15, 1999 and Amendment No. 5 filed on May
24, 1999  (collectively  the "Schedule 13D"). The reporting  persons filing this
amendment are Mark T. Smith, The Rockside Foundation,  Logg Investment Research,

this amendment, the Schedule 13D speaks as of its respective dates.

     Item 4 is amended to add the following two paragraphs:

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

     The Monterey Stockholders Group LLC ("Monterey") has commenced a lawsuit in
Federal  District Court in Delaware against Palomar Medical  Technologies,  Inc.
(the  "Company")  and its four  directors,  Louis Valente,  A. Neil  Pappalardo,
Nicholas P. Economou and James Martin  challenging  the results of the Company's
annual meeting of stockholders held on June 23, 1999 (the "Annual Meeting").

     Monterey alleges in its complaint that the defendants  improperly counted a
large block of 3,250,000  shares of common stock (on a pre-reverse  split basis)
for the purposes of obtaining a quorum at the Annual Meeting for the election of
directors.  In filings with the SEC,  however,  the Company  repeatedly told the
public that these shares were "held in escrow,"  "not entitled to vote" and "not
considered  outstanding."  Without  these  shares,  there  would not have been a
quorum.  Monterey alleges in its complaint that the defendants' conduct violated
federal  securities laws as well as Delaware law. Monterey seeks judicial relief
to set aside  the  challenged  election  and to order  that a new  stockholders'
meeting be held.
