Laser Eye Surgery

... The company said that the U.S.

surgeons will be the first in the world to operate Bausch & Lomb's Planoscan standard treatment at 100 Hz when the 217z100 laser becomes commercially available.

The 217z100 laser, which is a part of Bausch & Lomb's Zyoptix Personalized Laser Vision Correction System, is expected to be commercially available in the United States by July 2006.

Bausch & Lomb began expanding its main optics center after a three-year overhaul and boosted research spending in 2005 to refocus on eye care.

Commenting on the advanced features of 217z100 laser, Bob Anello, Bausch & Lomb director of refractive marketing said, "The 217z100 laser reduces treatment time with the Bausch & Lomb Zyoptix system by half.

This reduction in treatment time comes on the heels of dramatic efficiency gains already achieved through a number of recent upgrades to the Zyoptix system." BOL is currently down 1.13% or $0.78 trading at $68.09 on a volume of 405,400 shares.
