Overview RxSight, Inc. is a commercial-stage medical technology company dedicated to providing high-quality customized vision to patients following cataract surgery. Our proprietary RxSight ® Light Adjustable Lens system (“RxSight system”) is the first and only commercially available premium cataract technology that enables doctors to customize and optimize visual acuity for patients after surgery. The RxSight system is comprised of our RxSight Light Adjustable Lens ® (LAL ® /LAL+ ® , collectively the “LAL”), RxSight Light Delivery Device (“LDD”) and related accessories. The LAL is a premium intraocular lens (“IOL”) made from the proprietary silicone-based photosensitive material that undergoes controlled changes in refractive power when exposed to specific ultraviolet (“UV”) light patterns generated by the LDD. We designed our RxSight system to address limitations of conventional premium IOL technologies by providing doctors with a more precise and adaptable method for achieving desired visual outcomes for their patients. Conventional premium IOLs require patients to select their visual priorities before surgery and accept the optical trade-offs inherent in those choices. Surgeons must rely on a series of preoperative measurements and predictive formulae to determine the appropriate lens power. If the selected power is not optimal, the patient may experience less-than-ideal results that could require a subsequent corneal refractive procedure or other corrective measures to achieve intended vision targets. In contrast, with the RxSight system, the surgeon implants the LAL as they would in any other cataract procedure, determines refractive error with patient input several weeks following surgery and then uses the LDD to modify the LAL with the precise visual correction needed to achieve the patient’s desired vision outcomes. We believe our RxSight system provides doctors and patients increased confidence and peace of mind by eliminating the high-stakes preoperative guesswork common to competitive premium IOLs and allowing patients to iterate their final vision characteristics with customized post-surgical adjustments. A cataract is the loss of transparency in the eye’s natural lens, which causes blurry or hazy vision and can eventually lead to blindness. Approximately 50% of all individuals develop some form of cataracts by age 60, usually in both eyes, and prevalence increases with age. Among the world’s most commonly performed procedures, cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy natural lens and replacing it with a clear IOL. Prior to surgery, patients can opt for either a spherical monofocal IOL, which usually results in improved vision but may require glasses for best vision, or a premium IOL, which also corrects for astigmatism and/or presbyopia, thereby reducing spectacle dependence. In the U.S., Medicare and private insurers typically cover the full cost of spherical monofocal IOL procedures, while premium IOL procedures require patients to pay an incremental out-of-pocket fee, typically ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 per eye depending on the specific premium IOL used. In the U.S., the world’s largest premium IOL market, 2025 premium procedures represented about 21% of all cataract procedures and generated approximately $860 million in revenue, a figure that is projected to grow at a 8.0% compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) by 2030, according to the Market Scope 2025 Premium Cataract Surgery Market Report. We believe that the premium cataract surgery market remains underpenetrated due to both doctors’ reluctance to recommend competitive premium IOLs to the full universe of eligible patients and patients’ confusion in assessing the associated trade-offs and side effects with competitive premium IOLs. We believe competitive premium IOLs often fail to deliver on patients’ expectations for quality vision across a range of distances without glasses. We believe our RxSight system offers doctors and patients a significantly more reliable approach that can consistently deliver optimal, fully customized visual outcomes with few compromises, ultimately driving broad adoption and establishing it as the standard of care for premium cataract procedures. The key benefits of our solution include: • Allowing full customization and optimization of patient vision after surgery. Our LAL uses a proprietary silicone formulation that enables changing the mechanical and optical properties of the lens following implantation.…
