First EU ALLY Commercial Installation Planned for August 2024

LENSAR, Inc. (Nasdaq: LNSR) (“LENSAR” or “the Company”), a global medical technology company focused on advanced laser solutions for the treatment of cataracts, today announced that the ALLY Adaptive Cataract Treatment System (“ALLY” or “ALLY System”) has received certification under the European Union’s (“EU”) Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”).

“We are thrilled to receive EU MDR certification for ALLY, which marks a significant milestone for LENSAR. We believe ALLY’s commercial availability in the EU creates a significant growth opportunity for us, through the ability to provide new capabilities and advanced next-generation laser technology to European surgeons,” said Nick Curtis, President and CEO of LENSAR. “European cataract surgeons now have access to a technology that has demonstrated to not only enhance the precision, efficiency and patient satisfaction associated with the procedure, but also to significantly improve practice workflow and economics.”

Receiving MDR certification enables LENSAR to begin providing EU surgeons a transformative technology solution for cataract procedures. ALLY is the first platform to enable surgeons to perform a laser cataract procedure seamlessly in a single, sterile environment. Due to its highly ergonomic design, enhanced speed and features, ALLY increases both patient and practice efficiencies. The Company is commercializing ALLY through its distributor network in the EU and expects to place the first ALLY Systems with European surgeons in the third quarter of 2024.

The ALLY System is designed to address the performance limitations of aging, first-generation technologies while simultaneously enabling physicians to maximize efficiency in the operating room, as supported by recently published time and motion studies. These studies have shown significant procedure time savings resulting in increased revenue opportunities for both surgeons and ambulatory surgery centers, as well as less throughput time for patients, beginning with the time they enter the facility until they leave post-procedure.

ALLY’s small footprint and enhanced ergonomics provide surgeons a unique opportunity to improve efficiencies in any operating room or in-office surgical suite. ALLY is the first and only cataract laser to use artificial intelligence in the iris registration and surface identification of astigmatism management, as well as to automatically determine cataract density, optimize fragmentation patterns and energy settings, with the goal of minimizing the overall energy delivered to complete the cataract procedure more efficiently and help contribute to quicker visual recovery and better patient outcomes. These proprietary features provide new opportunities for surgeons in laser cataract surgery procedures.
