Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.

     On June 17, 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) completed its pre-approval inspection of STAAR Surgical Company’s Nidau, Switzerland manufacturing facility, which was conducted June 14 -17, 2004. The FDA issued no Form 483 observations at the conclusion of the audit. (A Form 483 is issued when violations of Quality System and Good Manufacturing Practices requirements are observed.) However, the formal Establishment Inspection Report remains to be completed and considered by the FDA before the inspection process will be complete.
