Sales Update

CustomVis (AIM: CUS), the leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of solid state laser systems for the refractive surgical industry is pleased to announce it has signed its second laser sale in Argentina.

The contract adheres to the Group's standard payment terms with a deposit being received on signing the contract and subsequent payments over an agreed period of time. 

Further, CEO, Paul van Saarloos lead a team to the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) in San Francisco at the end of October to demonstrate the Group's products - this conference being the world's largest gathering for the industry. Dr van Saarloos received an unprecedented number of inquiries for the Pulzar Z1 laser, particularly from South America as well as for the Group's new product, RetinaVis, a highly portable digital ophthalmoscope, which was presented to a range of customers and distributors. The Group anticipates announcing distributor agreements soon.

Following the recent regulatory approval for the customised refractive eye surgery to treat presbyopia, the Group is pleased to announce that it has already implemented the software upgrade on several Pulzar Z1 lasers and started to receive payments in advance for the presbyopia treatments. Interest has been strong from its other customers and the Board expects further orders to quickly follow for this procedure.

Dr van Saarloos commented, "Although the Pulzar Z1 inquiries may or may not lead to future sales, we are delighted that interest into our laser is spreading and that sales of PresBvis, the presbyopia treatment, have commenced so quickly."
