              The undersigned Registrant hereby amends Item 7 of its Current
Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 1999, to include certain required financial
statements and pro forma financial information.


ITEM 7.       FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

              (a)     Financial Statements of Acquired Business.

              The following pages, F-2 through F-22 listed in the Index to
              Financial Statements contain (i) audited financial statements of
              Transcend Therapeutics, Inc. for the years ended December 31, 1998
              and 1997, together with the Report of Ernst & Young LLP,
              Independent Auditors and (ii) the unaudited financial statements
              of Transcend Therapeutics, Inc. as of March 31, 1999 and December
              31, 1998 and for the three-months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

              (b)     Pro Forma Financial Statements.

              The following pages, F-23 through F-25, listed in the Index to
              Financial Statements contain the unaudited pro forma condensed
              combined balance sheet (pro forma statements) of the Registrant
              and Transcend Therapeutics, Inc. as of March 31, 1999.

              The pro forma statements of the Registrant and Transcend
              Therapeutics were prepared to give effect to the acquisition by
              the Registrant of all the outstanding common shares of Transcend
              Therapeutics. The pro forma financial statements as of March 31,
              1999, assumes that the acquisition occurred on March 31, 1999. The
              pro forma statements do not purport to represent what the
              companies' financial position or results of operations would have
              been if the acquisition in fact had occurred on the date indicated
              or to project the companies' financial position or results of
              operations for any future date or period.

              The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information
              and upon certain assumptions as described in note 1 to the pro
              forma statements that the Registrant believes are reasonable in
              the circumstances. The pro forma statements and accompanying notes
              should be read in conjunction with the respective historical
              financial statements for the Registrant and Transcend
              Therapeutics, including the note thereto. The historical financial
              statements of Transcend Therapeutics are included elsewhere in
              this Form 8-K/A.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               December 31, 1998

1. Basis of Presentation

 Company

   Transcend Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on December
23, 1992, and began operations in January 1993. The Company is a development-
stage enterprise, as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
7, and has been devoting its efforts to developing novel pharmaceuticals for
the treatment of diseases caused by oxidative stress and resultant tissue
damage, with a particular therapeutic focus on critical care. The Company had
begun a Phase III clinical trial of its lead product candidate, Procysteine, to
determine its safety and efficacy in the treatment of acute respiratory
distress syndrome ("ARDS"). In 1998, the Company suspended the trial following
a recommendation of an independent Safety Monitoring Board. The Safety
Monitoring Board had determined, following a review of preliminary mortality
data, that the incidence of all-cause mortality in patients receiving
Procysteine was higher than the incidence in patients receiving a placebo.
Subsequent to this recommendation, the Company ceased all of its developmental
activities, and focused its efforts on securing an acquisition candidate. In
December 1998, the Company agreed to be acquired by KeraVision, Inc.
("KeraVision").

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 Estimates

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

 Restricted Cash and Funds Held in Escrow

   Pursuant to the Development and License Agreement (the "BI Agreement") with
Boehringer Ingelheim, GmbH ("BI") signed in February 1997, the Company was
restricted as to the manner in which it can use certain proceeds the Company
received from BI. According to the BI Agreement, the Company must use the
BI license fee of $5,000,000 and an equity investment from BI of $5,000,000
(received in the Company's initial public offering) exclusively for ARDS
development expenses. Through December 31, 1998, the Company has incurred $9.4
million of ARDS development expenses under the BI Agreement. On March 3, 1999,
the Company and BI decided to terminate the BI Agreement by mutual consent. The
parties released each other from any and all obligation under the BI Agreement
and BI acknowledged the Company's sole ownership of any remaining restricted
funds from the license fee and equity investment from BI. Consequently, none of
the Company's cash is restricted exclusively for ARDS development expenses at
December 31, 1998 (see Note 5).

   Pursuant to the pending merger agreement with KeraVision, the Company placed
$7 million in an escrow account with a third-party escrow agent on December 22,
1998. Since Transcend alone may terminate the merger only in certain limited
conditions, the Company recorded the $7 million, plus accrued interest thereon,
as escrow cash at December 31, 1998.

 Cash and Cash Equivalents

   The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three
months or less on their acquisition date to be cash equivalents.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


 Property and Equipment

   Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation has been provided
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five years
for all assets. During 1998, the Company recognized a loss on the disposal of
its property and equipment (see Note 3).

   The cost and accumulated depreciation of property and equipment at December
31 are as follows:

</TABLE>

 Intangible Assets

   Acquired patents and licenses are recorded at cost and have been amortized
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
assets, subject to the maximum legal life of the patents and licenses. The
costs of internally generated patents or patent applications are expensed in
the period incurred as research and development expenses. During 1998, the
Company recognized an impairment charge on its intangible assets (see Note 3).

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

   The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts payable and accrued expenses. Fair value of issued equity instruments
is based upon negotiated prices and includes cash and the fair value of other
consideration received.

 Revenue Recognition

   Research and development contract revenues and license fees are recognized
as earned and represent, in 1993, reimbursement of the Company's expenditures
pursuant to the terms of an agreement with Clintec Nutrition Company
("Clintec") whereby the Company was reimbursed $6,095,000 for expenditures it
incurred. In 1997, the Company recognized as revenue a non-refundable
$5,000,000 license fee received from BI in exchange for which the Company
granted BI exclusive rights to various patents related to intravenous
Procysteine.

 Stock-Based Compensation

   The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25") in accounting for its
stock-based compensation plans. The Company has adopted the disclosure
provisions only of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("FAS 123").

 Net Loss Per Share

   Net loss per share is presented in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic
net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares
of common stock outstanding. Diluted net loss per share does not differ from
basic net loss per share since potential common shares to be issued upon
exercise of stock options are anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


 Income Taxes

   The Company provides for income taxes under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes ("SFAS 109"). Under
SFAS 109, the liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities
and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect
when the differences are expected to reverse.

3. Restructuring

   In the third quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company recorded a restructuring
charge of approximately $520,000, which is included in general and
administrative expenses. The charge related entirely to employee termination
costs resulting from an employee reduction plan (the "Reduction Plan") approved
in September 1998, in which ten employees and the Company's Chief Executive
Officer were notified of their fixed benefit termination arrangement. In total,
fifteen employees are subject to the Reduction Plan, which is expected to be
complete in early 1999. In the fourth quarter of 1998, the remaining four
employees were notified of their specific benefit arrangements. Approximately
$490,000 in termination charges were accrued in the fourth quarter to cover
those arrangements, including a probable commitment of up to approximately
$400,000 in termination and bonus related benefits that are variable based on
the Company's ability to find an acquisition partner. At December 31, 1998,
approximately $578,000 of restructuring charges remained in accrued expenses.

   In the fourth quarter of 1998, following a clinical hold order by the
Federal Drug Administration on human clinical testing of oral Procysteine for
the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, management ceased all
development activities related to Procysteine and determined that the Company's
patents and licenses related to Procysteine had declined in value. Management
assessed the fair value of the patents and licenses, and concluded that there
would be no future cash flows from these assets. Accordingly, the Company
recognized an impairment loss of approximately $286,000, which represented the
carrying value of the patents and licenses at the time of the assessment. In
the third and fourth quarters of 1998, the Company recognized an aggregate
impairment loss of $79,000 related to a write-down of property and equipment. A
decision was made by management to dispose of all of the Company's property and
equipment as a result of the Company's change in operational objectives
discussed in Note 1. As a result, the projected future cash flows from the
property and equipment were less than the carrying value of the assets, and an
impairment loss was recognized to record the property and equipment at its fair
value. As of December 31, 1998, the Company has disposed of all of its property
and equipment.

   The recognition of these impairment losses was in accordance with the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of.

</TABLE>

5. Senior Secured Convertible Notes

   On September 13, 1995, the Company sold Series A Notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $2,000,000 to certain institutional investors. On May 29,
1996, the Company issued Series B Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $1,000,000 to certain institutional investors. The Series A Notes
were convertible into shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at one
share per $5.00 of principal outstanding. The Series B Notes were convertible
into shares of Series B Preferred stock at one share per $7.50 of principal
outstanding.

   Prior to conversion, each note was to mature on January 15, 1997, bearing
interest of 30% per annum, payable every four months beginning January 13,
1996. Interest payments were made in the form of Series A and B Convertible
Preferred Stock. All principal and accrued interest were converted into shares
of Series A and B Convertible Preferred Stock upon the closing of the issuance
of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock as described in Note 7.

6. Income Taxes

   As of December 31, 1998, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $19,365,000. These loss carryforwards are available to reduce
future federal and state income taxes payable to the extent permitted under the
Internal Revenue Code, and expire in varying amounts through 2018.

   Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences
between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company believes
that, based on a number of factors, including the Company's net losses incurred
since its inception, the available objective evidence creates sufficient
uncertainty regarding the realization of the deferred tax assets such that a
full valuation allowance has been recorded. The Company has the following
deferred tax assets at December 31:

7. Stockholders' Equity

 Common Stock

   On April 5, 1994, the Company acquired a direct license from Cornell
Research Foundation ("Cornell") to the Procysteine and related technologies for
the issue of 35,025 shares of Common Stock. In accordance with the same
agreement, the Company issued 680,000 shares of Common Stock to Clintec as part
consideration for the acquisition of the Procysteine and related technologies.
The technology has been recorded at the Common Stock's fair value of $.50 per
share at the time of the transaction.

   In relation to the acquisition of Covered Technology from Clintec on April
5, 1994, Clintec agreed to forgive and forever discharge the Company from any
obligation to repay an outstanding amount due for expenses incurred of $304,446
due to Clintec. The Company recorded this amount as a contribution to capital
during 1994.

   In August 1996, the Company's Board of Directors approved a one-for-five
reverse stock split of its Common Stock. There was a delay in filing the
necessary amendments to the Company's charter and the split was not effective
until February 1997. All common share and per share amounts have been adjusted
retroactively to reflect the stock split.

   In July 1997, the Company completed its initial public offering of 1,800,000
shares of Common Stock. In connection with the completion of the offering, the
Company converted all of its outstanding shares of Series A, B and C
Convertible Preferred Stock and Redeemable Non-Convertible Preferred Stock to
an aggregate of 3,122,167 shares of Common Stock.

   The Company has reserved 51,950 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon
exercise of Common Stock warrants, and 833,145 shares of Common Stock for
issuance upon exercise of stock options granted under the 1994 Equity Incentive
Plan.

 Common Stock Warrants

   On October 28, 1994, as additional consideration for the execution of the
lease on the Company's office space, the Company issued Common Stock warrants
to its lessor to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock, exercisable through
October 28, 1999, at $5.00 per share. These warrants were canceled in 1998 in
connection with the termination of the Company's office lease (see Note 9).

   At December 31, 1998, the Company has Common Stock warrants outstanding to
purchase 51,950 shares of Common Stock, exercisable through March 3, 2002, at
$10.00 per share to certain affiliated parties.

 Preferred Stock

   The Company's Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000
additional shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, without further
stockholder approval. Each such series of Preferred Stock would have such
number of shares, designations, preferences, voting powers, qualifications and
special and relative rights or privileges that the Board of Directors may from
time to time determine, which may include, among others, dividend rights,
voting rights, redemption and sinking fund provisions, liquidation preferences
and conversion rights. Mandatory redeemable preferred stock is recorded upon
issuance at fair value, net of issuance costs, and periodically accreted to
redemption value using the interest method.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

 Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

   During 1994, the Company sold 6,500,000 shares of Series A Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Stock") for $6,500,000. The Series A
Stock was converted into 1,983,255 shares of Common Stock upon the closing of
the Company's Initial Public Offering in July 1997.

 Series B and C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

   On September 3, 1996, the Company sold an aggregate of 851,064 shares of its
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock to a group of investors for $2.0 million.
As part of the same transaction, the sole holder (Clintec) of 9,000 shares of
the Company's Redeemable Non-convertible Preferred Stock exchanged such shares
for 3,404,255 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, $3.1
million in aggregate principal amount of, and interest on, the Series A Notes
and Series B Notes were converted into an aggregate of 2,098,631 shares of
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 690,775 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock. The notes were scheduled to mature on January 15, 1997,
bearing interest of 30% per annum.

   The Series B and C Preferred Stock were converted into 138,155 and 896,861
shares of Common Stock, respectively, of the Company upon the closing of the
initial public offering in July 1997.

Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Warrant Shares

   In conjunction with the issuance of the Series A Redeemable Convertible
Preferred Stock, the Company sold 1,625,000 warrants to purchase Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock at a price per share equal to the lesser
of (i) the per share purchase price of the securities issued in the next
financing round or (ii) $5.00. During 1995, 250,000 warrant shares were
canceled by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions stipulated
in the April 4, 1994 Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants agreement, as a
result of not participating in the private placement offering in September
1995.

   In connection with the issuance of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock,
the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock warrants (Series A warrants)
elected to surrender the Series A warrants and receive Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock equivalent to the difference between the deemed
fair market value of the Series C Preferred Stock ($2.35 per share) and the
exercise price of the Series A warrants ($1.00 per share) multiplied by the
outstanding Series A warrants (1,375,000). The resulting aggregate fair market
value of the Series A Preferred Stock warrants received converted into 789,983
shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and were issued upon the net
exercise of such warrants.

   All of the outstanding shares of Series A, B and C Convertible Preferred
Stock were converted into Common Stock upon the closing of the Company's
initial public offering in July 1997.

 Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred Stock

   The Company had issued 9,000 shares of Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred
Stock to Clintec as part consideration for the acquisition of the Procysteine
and related technologies at its fair value of approximately $500,000 on April
5, 1994. The Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred Stock was redeemable, upon
certain conditions at the option of the holder, at a price of $1,000 per share
plus any unpaid dividends which accrued at a rate of $70 per share per annum.
The Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred Stock had a liquidation preference over
Common Stock of $1,000 per share, plus any accrued, but unpaid, dividends. As
part of the September 3, 1996 financing transaction, the holders exchanged the
Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred Stock for 3,404,255 of Series C Preferred
Stock valued at $8 million by the Company. The Company recorded

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

the difference of approximately $4 million between the carrying value of the
Redeemable Nonconvertible Preferred Stock and the value of the Series C
Preferred Stock issued in exchange thereof as a charge to accumulated deficit
and an adjustment to net loss to common stockholders in 1996.

   In February 1997, the Company issued 1,039,000 shares of Redeemable Non-
convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 51,950 shares of Common
Stock. The shares of Redeemable Non-convertible Preferred Stock were exchanged
for 103,896 shares of Common Stock upon the closing of the initial public
offering in July 1997.

8. Stock Option Plan

   In 1994, the Company adopted its 1994 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), as
amended in 1998. The Plan authorizes the Board of Directors to grant stock
options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,075,891 shares of Common Stock.
Stock options granted under the Plan may qualify as "incentive stock options"
under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. The price at which shares may
be purchased with an option shall be specified by the Board at the date the
option is granted, but in the case of an incentive stock option, shall not be
less than the fair market value on the date of grant. The duration of any
option shall be specified by the Board, but no option designated as an
incentive stock option may be exercised beyond ten years from the date of
grant. Options granted under the Plan vest ratably over two to four years
beginning after one year of service.

   During fiscal year 1996, the Company recorded an increase to additional-
paid-in capital and a corresponding charge to deferred compensation to
recognize the aggregate difference between the deemed fair market value for
accounting purposes of the stock options at the date of grant and the option
exercise price. The deferred compensation is being amortized over the option
vesting period. During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company reversed
compensation expense related to the amortization of deferred compensation as a
result of forfeited stock options. In addition, during the year ended December
31, 1998, the Company settled a $30,000 liability with third party vendor
through the issuance of stock options. The fair value of the stock options, as
calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, resulted in additional
expense of $4,877 during 1998. If the proposed merger between the Company and
KeraVision is consummated, all of the stock options and warrants of the Company
outstanding at the time of the merger will be canceled.

   The following table presents the activity of the Plan for the years ended
December 31:

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at
December 31, 1998 is 6.4 years.

   Pro forma information is required by SFAS 123, and has been determined as
if the Company has accounted for employee stock options under the fair value
method. The pro forma net loss to common stockholders for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 was approximately $(7,451,000), $(2,600,000)
and $(9,300,000), respectively. The pro forma net loss per share-basic and
diluted to Common stockholders for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996 was $(1.25), $(0.80) and $(12.06), respectively. For purposes of pro
forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to
expense over the option vesting period, and is net of the amount recorded for
amortization of deferred compensation expense by the Company.

   The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with an estimated weighted-average life of
three to six years from the date of grant, assuming a risk free interest rate
of 5% to 7% and a volatility factor of .23 on the expected market price of the
Company's common stock. At this time management does not expect to pay any
dividends to stockholders during the vesting period of the options, and
therefore, has excluded such assumption from determining fair value of the
options.

   The effects on 1998, 1997 and 1996 pro forma net loss of expensing the
estimated fair value of stock options are not necessarily representative of
the effects on reporting the results of operations for future years as the
periods presented include only one, two and three years of option grants under
the Plan.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

   The Company leases office space and other equipment under various
noncancelable operating leases. Rent expense recognized under these leases
amounted to approximately $233,000, $203,000 and $199,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

   The Company's office lease was scheduled to expire in fiscal 1999. However,
in November 1998, the Company and its lessor terminated the office lease
effective on December 31, 1998. At December 31, 1998, the Company is no longer
obligated to pay any amounts under its terminated office lease.

   At December 31, 1998, the Company has recognized a liability of
approximately $67,000 to settle its commitment with respect to certain
equipment operating leases. The Company has no other future minimum lease
payments under noncancelable lease agreements.

   The Company must pay KeraVision a $500,000 termination fee if the merger
agreement is terminated by KeraVision for cause.

10. Defined Contribution Plan

   The Company had a defined contribution 401 (k) plan (the "Defined
Contribution Plan"), which covered substantially all employees. The Defined
Contribution Plan permitted participants to make contributions from 1% to 15%
of their compensation. In addition, the Company could have contributed to the
Defined Contribution Plan at its discretion. The Company made no contributions
to the Defined Contribution Plan during the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company terminated the Defined Contribution
Plan effective November 30, 1998 and all funds were dispersed to the employees
in accordance with Internal Revenue Service guidelines governing defined
contribution plan terminations.

               NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                MARCH 31, 1999


(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of March 31,
1999 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 and for the
period January 1, 1993 (commencement of operations) to March 31, 1999 have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles to be presented for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, such financial information includes all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of
the financial position at such date and the operating results and cash flows for
such periods. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
entire year. These condensed financial statements and the related notes should
be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 1998 included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1999.


OVERVIEW

In the second quarter of 1997, the Company began a Phase III clinical trial to
determine the safety and efficacy of the Company's lead product candidate,
Procysteine(R), in the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome. In
March 1998, the Company suspended the Phase III clinical trial following a
recommendation of an independent Safety Monitoring Board. The Safety Monitoring
Board had determined, following a review of preliminary mortality data on a
total of 214 patients enrolled through March 18, 1998, that the incidence of
all-cause mortality in patients receiving Procysteine i.v. was higher than the
incidence in patients receiving a placebo. In May 1998, the Company announced
that it was discontinuing its Phase III clinical trial because its preliminary
review of the data uncovered no clear explanation of the lower mortality
observed in the placebo group. In August 1998, the Company and its corporate
partner Boehringer Ingelheim International, GmbH ("BI") announced results from
the unblinding of the Phase III clinical trial which showed that Procysteine
i.v. is not effective in the treatment of ARDS. No explanation for the higher
all-cause mortality observed in the Procysteine group could be identified and
the Company decided to abandon its efforts in this area.

In August 1998, Transcend's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer
resigned and Nicholas Harvey, then Transcend's Senior Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer, was appointed as President, a director and interim Chief
Executive Officer. Since August 1998, Transcend has been reducing its staff and
currently employs two persons, one of whom is Mr. Harvey. During the same
period, Transcend pursued various strategic alternatives with respect to its
business, including strategic alliances and the sale or merger of the company.
In December 1998, the Company signed a definitive merger agreement to be
acquired by KeraVision, Inc. (NASDAQ NM: KERA), a vision correction company.
Transcend agreed under the merger agreement to wind down its operations as a
drug development company. No Transcend employees will be retained after the
closing of the transaction. In March 1999, BI and Transcend agreed to terminate
their collaboration. BI released the restrictions on the remainder of the cash
BI had invested in Transcend in return for the right to use all clinical data
obtained in the trials. Also in March 1999, Transcend signed a letter agreement
assigning its residual patent estate and its rights and obligations under
various license agreements to MassTrace, Inc., a privately held diagnostics and
pharmaceutical development tools company. In May 1999, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") declared effective the registration statement
relating to the KeraVision shares to be issued to Transcend stockholders
pursuant to the merger agreement. A Transcend stockholders' meeting will be held
on May 28, 1999 to approve the merger with KeraVision. The Company expects to
close the merger with KeraVision promptly after the meeting.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income ("Statement 130"). Statement 130 establishes new
rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components.
Statement 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's
available-for-sale securities, which prior to adoption were reported separately
in shareholder's equity to be included in other comprehensive income. During the
first quarters of 1999 and 1998, total comprehensive income was not materially
different from net income (loss).

          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   We have prepared the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial statements to give effect to the acquisition of Transcend as a
purchase of assets.

   The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31,
1999, gives effect to the acquistion of Transcend as if it had occurred on that
date. The shares being issued by KeraVision are recorded at the fair value of
the net monetary assets acquired, essentially cash less liabilities, less the
estimated KeraVision acquisition costs, which are reflected as issuance costs.
Management of KeraVision believes that the amounts assigned to the shares issued
are appropriate given Transcend was a non-operating company at the date the
merger was consummated. KeraVision also believes that the use of the fair value
of the net cash assets is more appropriate than the value of the shares issued
in the merger. KeraVision did not acquire any goodwill, technology or other
intangibles in the merger, which essentially represented a financing
transaction.

   The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet includes pro forma
adjustments to the historical Transcend information for wind-up activities
through the date of the closing of the merger on May 28, 1999, of approximately
$17,000.

   We have not presented pro forma information pertaining to results of
operations because the Transcend business was not continued by KeraVision and
because Transcend represented a non-operating company at the date the merger was
consummated. KeraVision management does not believe the acquisition of Transcend
will have any effect on its on-going operations, and information pertaining to
combined pro forma operations would not be meaningful.

   We have presented the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
information for illustrative purposes only. This information does not
necessarily indicate the financial position that would have actually been
reported had the merger occurred at the date presented, nor does it necessarily
indicate future financial position or results of operations. The unaudited pro
forma condensed combined balance sheet is based on the historical financial
statements of KeraVision and Transcend, and should be read in conjunction with
those historical financial statements.

         NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET

Note 1

   The total consideration issued to Transcend stockholders in the merger was
approximately $10.7 million, paid in KeraVision common stock through the
issuance of 978,498 shares. The shares were calculated as follows: the net cash
acquired in the transaction of $8.5 million, plus the premium of approximately
$2.2 million (27%) divided by the ten-day average closing price of KeraVision's
common stock for the period ended May 24, 1999 ($10.94).

   KeraVision expects that its merger related costs will be approximately $0.6
million. These merger related costs and the merger premium are reflected as
common stock issuance costs, resulting in the recording of the KeraVision stock
at an amount equal to the net cash assets acquired. The estimated merger
premium and total consideration were computed using the ten-day average closing
price of KeraVision's common stock for the period ended May 24, 1999.

Note 2

   The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet includes adjustments necessary
to give effect to the merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 1999 and to
reflect cash acquired and liabilities assumed, including the elimination of
Transcend's equity accounts and the allocation of the merger premium to
additional paid in capital.

   (A) Reflects reduction of Transcend's cash for wind up costs through the
  closing date of the merger.

    (B) Estimated decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses through
  the merger date.

    (C) Write-off of Transcend miscellaneous assets acquired in the merger,
  which will not be utilized by KeraVision. Such assets were sold or abandoned.

    (D) Estimated merger related costs to be paid by KeraVision. The estimated
  merger costs include amounts related to attorney fees, accounting fees and
  printing costs.

    (E) Elimination of Transcend equity accounts.

    (F) Issuance of 978,498 shares of KeraVision common stock to purchase all
  Transcend common stock as discussed in Note 1. The shares issued have
  been recorded at an amount equal to the fair value of the net cash assets
  acquired (approximately $8.5 million) less merger-related issuance costs of
  approximately $0.6 million as follows:
