Item 8.01. Other Events

On September 26, 2024, Noridian Healthcare Solutions, the Medicare Administrative Contractor ("MAC") for sixteen (16) states and U.S. territories, published a final local coverage determination and related final local coverage article (collectively, the "Final LCD") regarding Micro-Invasive Glaucoma Surgery ("MIGS"). The Final LCD, which is substantially similar to the proposed LCD published by Noridian in May 2024, confirms Medicare coverage for phacoemulsification / intraocular lens placement procedures performed with a single MIGS procedure. A "MIGS" procedure includes canaloplasty in combination with trabeculotomy ab interno,which is a procedural description associated with the Company's OMNI® Surgical System ("OMNI"), and goniotomy, which is a procedural description associated with the Company's SION® Surgical Instrument ("SION") technology. Accordingly, Medicare coverage for canaloplasty in combination with trabeculotomy ab internoand goniotomy procedures will continue in the states covered by this MAC. The LCD has an effective date of November 17, 2024.

The Final LCD adopts coverage limitations or non-coverage policies for MIGS procedures as first-line treatments for mild-to-moderate glaucoma, for surgical MIGS procedures (such as canaloplasty or goniotomy) when performed at the same time of service in the same patient eye as an aqueous shunt procedure, and for when phacoemulsification / intraocular lens placement is performed with a combination of MIGS procedures (e.g., cataract + stent + canaloplasty or goniotomy) at the same time of service in the same eye.

The Company plans to continue to engage with each MAC, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the clinical societies in continued support of procedures performed with OMNI and SION.
