“Cigarettes play the role of a best friend in many smokers’ lives. They’re a constant companion in good times and bad,

a stress reliever and a perceived way to control weight. As a result, quitting involves both physical and emotional challenges. A good way to begin this process is to attend one of the tobacco cessation classes offered by Anaheim Memorial (see listing above). For more information, call 1-866-NEW-LUNG.”

Visiogen, Inc. Receives European CE Mark For Its Dual-Optic Accommodating Intraocular

Lens

IRVINE, CA., June 23, 2006—Visiogen, Inc. of Irvine, California, today announced that it has

received approval in Europe for its dual-optic accommodating intraocular lens (AIOL). The CE

Mark designation for the Visiogen Synchrony® AIOL signifies that the device conforms to the

essential requirements of the Medical Devices Directive (MDD), and further validates the

viability of the product.

“Having a CE Mark allows us to expand into post-marketing research studies within Europe to

further build the scientific foundation for Synchrony,” said Reza Zadno, Ph.D., Visiogen’s

President and CEO. “As a result of this milestone, our product has moved beyond the early

investigational stages, and has been validated as a commercially viable product by an

international regulatory body.”

Visiogen’s Synchrony AIOL is the first dual-optic accommodating lens developed for both

cataract and refractive surgery. It is designed to enable accommodation in patients undergoing

cataract surgery who may or may not have a presbyopic condition. Presbyopia is a visual

condition that results in the inability to focus near, which makes reading without glasses nearly

impossible. The condition affects nearly all people by the age of 50. The unique dual-optic

design of Synchrony can provide vision at all distances, without the optical limitations from

multifocality.

The Synchrony system incorporates the dual-optic lens, with a proprietary easy-to use pre-loaded

injector. The entire system is self-contained and ready for use without the need for lens handling.

The dual optic lens can be inserted through a 3.6 – 3.8 mm clear-corneal incision. The single-

piece silicone lens unfolds in the eye upon insertion and features two optics connected by a spring

Visiogen, Inc. Signs Significant Financing Agreement

Company Raises $24 Million, Further Supporting its Mission and the Validity

of the Synchrony® Dual Optic Accommodating Intraocular Lens

IRVINE, CA., February 28, 2007—Visiogen, Inc. of Irvine, California, announced it has raised

$24 million from new and current investors in support of the Synchrony® dual optic

accommodating intraocular lens. Lead investor CMEA Ventures, along with Foundation

Medical Partners, made major contributions to this round of financing, which was also strongly

supported by current investors Three Arch Partners, New Leaf Venture Partners and Prospect

Venture Partners.

Since the last round of financing in 2003, Visiogen has consistently met all the company’s

timelines, received the CE Mark, and advanced into Phase III clinical trials across the United

States in late 2006. “Based on the excitement generated from our ongoing clinical trials, we

believe that investors see Synchrony as the next-generation product in the intraocular lens

market,” said Reza Zadno, president and CEO, Visiogen, Inc.

"We are excited by the potential of Visiogen's Synchrony lens to revolutionize the field of

intraocular lens replacement based on the clinical results to date. We think the ophthalmology

industry's reimbursement dynamics, the company's management team, and the existing investors

all position this company for success,” said Visiogen board member and CMEA Ventures Senior

Partner Rodney D. Altman, M.D.

The team at Foundation Medical Partners reflected this sentiment as well. "We at Foundation

Medical Partners believe that Visiogen's outstanding management team has developed a game-

changing technology to address an important unmet clinical need in ophthalmology. We are very

excited about the enormous potential for Visiogen to revolutionize the intraocular lens implant

Visiogen, Inc. Recognized at American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery

Symposium with Two Best of Session Papers

Findings Further Support the Validity of the Synchrony® Dual Optic Accommodating

Intraocular Lens

IRVINE, CA., May 17, 2007—Visiogen, Inc. of Irvine, California, announced that two papers

focusing on the company’s Synchrony® dual optic accommodating intraocular lens were

awarded the Best of Session designation at the 2007 American Society of Cataract and Refractive

Surgery (ASCRS) Symposium held recently in San Diego, CA.

The two recognized papers were “Effect of Tilt and Decentration on the Image Quality and Depth

of Focus Produced by Accommodating IOLs,” presented by Doug Koch, M.D., Baylor College of

Medicine, and “Visual Function at Different Focal Distances with the Synchrony Dual Optic

Accommodating IOL,” presented by Ivan L. Ossma-Gomez, M.D., Universidad Industrial de

Satender, and Andrea Galvis, M.D.

Dr. Koch’s paper explicated his theoretical analysis, which found that the effects of tilt and

decentration of a dual optic IOL, like Synchrony, are fundamentally different than a conventional

single optic IOL. Dual lens IOLs experience an expanded depth of focus without a significant

reduction in contrast as is shown with single optic IOLs.

Drs. Ossma-Gomez and Galvis compared multifocal and dual optic accommodating IOLs. Their

paper established that Synchrony showed better reading ability than ReSTOR (Alcon) and

ReZoom (Advanced Medical Optics) intraocular lenses, demonstrated by reading speed at low

light. At newsprint size, the Synchrony patients read at a median speed of 153 words per minute

in low light settings, compared with 86 words per minute for ReZoom patients and 75 words per

minute for those with ReSTOR lenses. Additionally, the study showed that Synchrony patients

demonstrated excellent visual acuity in a physiological range at all distance tested—far,

Manufacturer of an intraocular lens for cataract patientsBrand launch With its first product in clinical trials, visiogen lacked a brand image and had little awareness among its professional and investment audiences. a complete brand identity, web and public relations initiative was created and launched, helping to make the company and synchrony product widely known within ophthalmology circles and raise an additional $24 million in capital investment.

ANNOUNCING THE GRAND OPENING:PACIFIC COAST IMAGING AND HEART INSTITUTE IN NEWPORT BEACH

January 31, 2006—Newport Beach, CA. Pacific Coast Imaging of Irvine and

Pacific Coast Cardiology of Newport Beach are pleased to announce the opening

of their new joint facility. The Pacific Coast Imaging & Heart Institute, located at

3300 West Coast Highway in Newport Beach will encompass the best in service and

technology for patients in need of imaging and cardiology care. The luxurious new

facility will open its doors to the public on February 3, 2006. A ribbon-cutting event for

the new center hosted by the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce will take place

at the new facility on Friday, February 3 at 4 p.m.

The Pacific Coast Imaging and Heart Institute is an incredible facility: the

nearly 20,000-square-foot space looks and feels more like a spa than what it actually

is—the most advanced private, freestanding outpatient imaging and cardiology

facility in Southern California. Some of Orange County’s top cardiologists provide

outstanding patient care, and sub-specialty trained radiologists provide multi-faceted

imaging expertise, including extensive cumulative experience in oncological

imaging. The facility will be home to some of the most advanced imaging equipment

in the world, including:

• The most advanced non-invasive cardiac imaging that detects cardiac disease

much earlier than standard methods, obviating the need for catheterization.

• 64-slice CT scanner. Considered a major scientific breakthrough, PCI’s 64-slice

• As the population in this region grows, St. Jude Medical Center must respond byexpanding vital services. Four hospital closures in recent years—Martin Luther in Anaheim, Friendly Hills in La Habra, and hospitals in La Mirada and Brea—make growth an imperative and immediate concern.

• Increasingly, the diversity and complexity of patient needs are defining the scope of services within the continuum of care necessary to treat them.The Southwest Patient Tower is dedicated to expanding Emergency, Cardiac and Vascular Catheterization, Critical Care, and Maternity services essential to St. Jude's continuum of care.

• St. Jude's dedicated healthcare providers are among the finest, and everyone has a deep desire to serve the needs of each patient.

• All patients who walk through the hospital's doors are welcomed and reassuredthat their needs are understood.

• Patients benefit from the close relationship that exists among all members of thehealthcare team—physicians, nurses, technical staff, support staff, and volunteers.

Faith-based medical center foundationBrand identity in order to support a $45 million capital campaign launched for hospital expansion, the Foundation needed a brand name, identity and a wide range of collateral materials. We created a branded theme and supportive materials to promote the new capabilities and architectural features of the hospital under construction. This resulted in generating significant impetus among potential donors to contribute to the campaign.

Pedestrian safety programProgram branding Through a government grant, a citywide program was funded to help reduce vehicle-related pedestrian accidents at intersections and crosswalks. a fresh spin was needed to break through to the primary target audiences consisting of inner-city third graders and their parents. The “santa ana safe street Crossers” brand was created, which included a range of bilingual educational materials, public outreach activities, scripted dramatic presentations and street performances at many schools and community events.
