A core offering is the Visian implantable Collamer lens (ICL) product line, designed to correct various visual impairments including myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism, and presbyopia (age-related loss of near vision). Specifically, their Hyperopic ICL addresses farsightedness. Furthermore, STAAR Surgical provides preloaded silicone intraocular lenses and associated injector systems, crucial for cataract surgery. The company also sells various injector components and ancillary medical instruments and devices. Its market outreach extends to a diverse array of healthcare providers, such as ophthalmic surgeons, specialized vision and surgical centers, hospitals, governmental healthcare facilities, and distributors. These products are predominantly utilized by ophthalmologists. Sales are conducted directly via its own sales force in key countries like the United States, Japan, Germany, Spain, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Singapore. In other significant markets, including China, Korea, India, France, the Benelux region, Italy, and other international territories, the company employs a hybrid sales model, leveraging both its direct representatives and independent distributors.
