SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Sight Sciences,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Sight Sciences, Inc.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal period ended June 30, 2023 (this "Quarterly Report") contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report, including statements regarding our future results of operations or financial condition, business strategy and plans, and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “hope,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or “would” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning the following:

estimates of our total addressable market, future revenue, expenses, capital requirements, and our needs for additional financing;
our ability to obtain and maintain sufficient reimbursement for our products;
our ability to enter into and compete in new markets;
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, our customers’ and suppliers’ businesses and the general economy;
our ability to compete effectively with existing competitors and new market entrants;
our ability to scale our infrastructure;
our ability to manage and grow our business by expanding our sales to existing customers or introducing our products to new customers;
our ability to establish and maintain intellectual property protection for our products or avoid claims of infringement;
potential effects of extensive government regulation;
our ability to obtain and maintain sufficient reimbursement for our products;
our abilities to protect and scale our intellectual property portfolio;
our ability to hire and retain key personnel;
our ability to obtain financing in future offerings;
the impact of incidence of disease or other epidemics on our business, our customers' and suppliers' businesses, and on our industry and the economy;
the volatility of the trading price of our common stock;
our expectation regarding the time during which we will be an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”); and
our ability to maintain proper and effective internal controls.

Actual events or results may differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements. As such, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, operating results, prospects, strategy, and financial needs. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 24, 202216, 2023 (the "2021"2022 Form 10-K") and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Moreover, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. The results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking

3


statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based onupon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report. While we believe that such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

You should read this Quarterly Report and the documents that we reference in this Quarterly Report and have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report with the understanding that our actual future results, performance and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect new information, actual results, revised expectations, or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Company and Nature of Business

Description of Business

Sight Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2010 and is headquartered in Menlo Park, California. The Company is an ophthalmic medical device company focused on the development and commercialization of surgical and nonsurgical technologies for the treatment of prevalent eye diseases.

Initial Public Offering

In July 2021,The Company's product portfolio aligns with its two reportable operating segments: Surgical Glaucoma and Dry Eye. The products for the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”)Surgical Glaucoma segment feature the OMNI® Surgical System, which is an implant-free glaucoma surgery technology indicated to reduce intraocular pressure in adult patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, the world's leading cause of its common stockirreversible blindness, and the SION™ Surgical Instrument, a manually operated device used in whichophthalmic surgical procedures to excise trabecular meshwork. The product portfolio for the Company issued and sold 10,000,000 shares of its common stock, and sold an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock upon the full exerciseDry Eye segment consists of the underwriters’ optionTearCare® System ("TearCare") for ophthalmologists and optometrists. TearCare is a wearable eyelid technology for adult patients with evaporative dry eye disease due to purchase additional sharesmeibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) when used in conjunction with manual expression of the Company's common stock. These sales occurred atmeibomian glands, enabling clearance of gland obstructions by physicians to address the initial public offering priceleading cause of $24.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $252.2 million from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $19.3 million and offering costs of $4.5 million.

Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, all then-outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted into 25,534,404 shares of common stock. Further, all outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants were converted into warrants to purchase 659,028 shares of common stock, which resulted in the reclassification of the convertible preferred stock warrant liability to additional paid-in capital.

In connection with the Company’s IPO, in July 2021, the Company’s certificate of incorporation was amended and restated to provide for 200,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share and 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.dry eye disease.

Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Since inception, the Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2022,2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $200.1271.1 million and recorded a net loss of $47.131.8 million for the six months then ended and expects to incur future additional losses.losses in the future. If the Company’s revenue levels from its products are not sufficient or if the Company is unable to secure additional funding when desired, the Company may need to delay the development of its products, and scale back its business and operations.operations, or change its business strategy.

The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity will satisfy its working capital and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the issuance of its financial statements. Any failure to generate sufficient revenues,increased revenue, achieve plannedimproved gross margins, or control operating costs could require the Company to raise additional capital through equity or debt financing. Such additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and could require the Company to modify, delay, or abandon some of its planned future expansion or expenditures or reduce some of its ongoing operating costs, which could harm its business, operating results, financial condition, and ability to achieve its intended business objectives.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has impacted, and is expected to continue to impact, demand for the Company's products, which are used in procedures and therapies that are considered elective. COVID-19 may also, directly or indirectly, have an unfavorable impact on other areas of the Company's business including, but not limited to, supply chain, sales, third party manufacturing, research and development costs and clinical studies. The full effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's financial condition and results of operations remains highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, and will depend on certain developments, including the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential variants. The impact on the Company's customers and suppliers and the range of governmental and community reactions to the pandemic are uncertain. The Company may continue to experience reduced customer demand or constrained supply that could materially adversely impact business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes in the Company's significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, as compared with those disclosed in the 20212022 Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 24, 2022.10-K.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to interim periods and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial information contained herein. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021,2022, which are contained in the Company's 20212022 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2022.. The Company's results of operations for the three- and six-monthssix months ended June 30, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 20222023 or for any other interim period.

10


The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenseexpenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates related to the provision for credit losses, inventory excess and obsolescence, the selection of useful lives of property and equipment, determination of the fair value of stock option grants, the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants, and provisions for income taxes and contingencies. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

DuringAccounting Standards Adopted

In June 2016, the threeFASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables and six-month period ended June 30, 2022, thereavailable-for-sale debt securities. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2023. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 were adopted with no significant material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standard Updates (ASU's) issued that were adopted. Standards Not Yet Adopted

As of June 30, 2022,2023, there are no significant ASU'sASUs issued and not yet adopted that are expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3. Fair Value Measurements

The Company reports all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

11


Level 2—Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety is based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents included $174.7123.4 million of treasury bills as of June 30, 2022.2023. These securities are classified as held-to-maturity and all have been purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less. Held-to-maturity debt securities are recorded at amortized cost in the financial statements.

The Company measures the fair value of outstanding debt for disclosure purposes on a recurring basis. As of June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, total debt of $33.033.6 million and $32.733.3 million is reported at amortized cost, respectively. This outstanding debt is classified as Level 2 as it is not actively traded. The amortized cost of the outstanding debt approximates the fair value.

The Company measured the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants using Level 3 unobservable inputs within the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The key assumptions included the fair value of redeemable convertible preferred stock, volatility, the risk-free interest rate, expected term (remaining contractual term of the warrants) and dividend yield. The Company had limited historical volatility information available, and the expected volatility was based on actual volatility for comparable public companies projected over the expected terms of the warrants. The Company did not apply a forfeiture rate to the warrants as there was not enough historical information available to estimate such a rate. The risk-free rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of the grant over the expected term of the warrants.

The Company determined the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants quarterly, with subsequent gains and losses from remeasurement of Level 3 financial liabilities recorded through other income (expense), net in condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants were converted to common stock warrants upon the closing of the IPO and subsequently settled during the third quarter of the year ended December 31, 2021.

Legal Proceedings

On September 16, 2021, the Company filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (C.A. No. 1:21-cv-01317) alleging that Ivantis, Inc. ("Ivantis") directly and indirectly infringes the Company's U.S. Patent Nos. 8,287,482, 9,370,443, 9,486,361, and 10,314,742 by making, using, selling, and offering for sale the Hydrus® Microstent. The Company’s Complaintcomplaint seeks money damages and injunctive relief. On January 24, 2022, Ivantis asserted counterclaims requesting declaratory judgments that the Company's asserted patents-in-suit are not infringed and/or are invalid. On August 1, 2022, the Company filed an amended complaint alleging that Alcon Inc., Alcon Vision, LLC and Alcon Research, LLC (collectively, "Alcon") infringe the four originally asserted patents by making, using, selling, and offering for sale the Hydrus® Microstent, and that all defendants also infringe U.S. Patent No. 11,389,328. NoThe defendants asserted counterclaims requesting declaratory judgments that the Company’s asserted patents-in-suit are not infringed and/or are invalid. A five-day jury trial date has been set.is scheduled to commence on April 8, 2024. Ivantis and Alcon filed petitions with the U.S. Patent Office seeking inter partes review of U.S. Patent Nos. 8,287,482, 9,370,443, 9,486,361, and 10,314,742 (IPR2022-01529, IPR2022-01530, IPR2022-01533, IPR2022-01540), each of which the U.S. Patent Office denied for raising prior art reference and invalidity arguments that were cumulative of those previously considered by the office. The Company is presently unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or to reasonably estimate the potential financial impact of the lawsuit on the Company, if any.

The Company is subject to legal, regulatory, and other claims and assessments from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Accruals for litigation and contingencies are reflected in the financial statements based on management’s assessment, including the advice of legal counsel, of the expected outcome of litigation or other dispute resolution proceedings, and/or the expected resolution of contingencies. Liabilities for estimated losses are accrued if the potential losses from any claims or legal proceedings are considered probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability of loss and the determination as to whether the amount can be reasonably estimated. Accruals are based only on information available at the time of the assessment due to the uncertain nature of such matters. As additional information becomes available, management reassesses potential liabilities related to pending claims and litigation and may revise its previous estimates, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations in a given period. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,2023 the Company does not believe it was not involved ina party to any material legal proceedings, exceptregulatory matters, or other disputes or claims which, if determined adversely, would, individually or taken together, have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity or future prospects. However, regardless of the merits of the claims raised or the outcome, legal proceedings and claims may have an adverse impact on the Company as described above.a result of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management time and resources, and other factors.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide for general indemnifications. The Company’s exposure under these agreements is unknown because it involves claims that may be made against the Company in the future, but that have not yet been made. To date, the Company has not paid any claims or been required to defend any action related to its indemnification obligations. However, the Company may record charges in the future as a result of these indemnification obligations.

1615


The Company indemnifies each of its directors and officers for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while the director is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity, as permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its certificate of incorporation and bylaws. The term of the indemnification period lasts as long as a director or officeran indemnitee may be subject to any proceeding arising out of acts or omissions of such director or officerindemnitee in such capacity. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company currently holds director and officer liability insurance. This insurance allows the transfer of risk associated with the Company’s exposure and may enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes that the fair value of these indemnification obligations is immaterial.minimal. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any liabilities relating to these obligations as of June 30, 2022 and2023 or December 31, 2021.2022.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2.62.3 million and $5.14.5 million related to stock option awards, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $0.92.6 million and $1.25.1 million related to stock option awards, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 20222023 and 20212022 was $9.676.94 and $10.429.67 per share, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was $1.70.5 million and $2.91.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value was calculated as the difference between the exercise prices of the underlying options and the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of exercise. As of June 30, 2022,2023, the unrecognized stock-based compensation ofexpense relating to unvested options was $30.919.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.02.2 years.

Determination of fair valueFair Value

The Company estimated the grant date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of stock options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards. The fair value of stock options was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected Term

The expected term is calculated using the simplified method, which is available if there is insufficient historical data about exercise patterns and post vesting employment termination behavior. The simplified method is

17


based on the vesting period and the contractual term for each grant or for each vesting tranche for awards with graded vesting. The midpoint of the vesting date and the maximum contractual expiration date is used as the expected term under this method. For awards with multiple vesting tranches, the time from grant until the midpoints for each of the tranches may be averaged to provide an overall expected term.

Expected Volatility

The Company used an average historical stock price volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies to be representative of its expected future stock price volatility, as the Company did not have anyCompany's trading history for its common stock.stock does not cover the expected term of granted awards. For purposes of identifying these peer companies, the Company considered the industry, stage of development, size, and financial leverage of potential comparable companies. For each grant, the Company measured historical volatility over a period equivalent to the expected term.

Risk-Free Interest Rate

The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield currently available on USU.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms equivalent to the expected term of a stock award.

Expected Dividend Rate

The Company has not paid, and does not anticipate paying, any dividends in the near future. Accordingly, the Company has estimated the dividend yield to be 0%0%.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs are share awards that entitle the holder to receive freely tradabletradeable shares of the Company’s common stock upon vesting. The RSUs cannot be transferred, and the awards are subject to forfeiture if the holder’s employment terminates prior to the release of the vesting restrictions. The RSUs generally vest over a four-year period with straight-line vesting in equal amounts on an annual basis, provided the employee remains continuously employed with the Company. The fair value of the RSUs is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Overview

SightSight Sciences’ mission is to transform ophthalmology and optometry through the development and commercialization of proprietary devices that target the underlying causes of the world’s most prevalent eye diseases. We are passionate about improving patients’ lives. Our objective is to develop and market products for use in new treatment paradigms and to create an interventional mindset in eyecare whereby our products may be used in procedures which supplant conventional outdated approaches. Our business philosophy is grounded in the following principles:

comprehensively understand disease physiology,physiology;
develop products that are intended to restore natural physiological functionality to diseased eyes;
develop and market products that achieve superior effectiveness versus current treatment paradigms while minimizing complications or side effects,effects;
provide intuitive, patient friendly solutions to ophthalmologists and optometrists; and
deliver compelling economic value to all stakeholders, including patients, providers and third-party payors such as Medicare and commercial insurersinsurers.

OurOur initial product development has focused on the treatment of two of the world’s most prevalent and underserved eye diseases, glaucoma and dry eye disease. We have commercialized products in each of our two reportable segments;segments, Surgical Glaucoma and Dry Eye. Our Surgical Glaucoma segment consists of sales of the OMNI®OMNI® Surgical System ("OMNI") and the SION™ Surgical Instrument ("SION"), while our Dry Eye segment includes sales of the TearCare®TearCare® System, ("TearCare"), and related components and accessories. Both systems areEach product is primarily sold through a highly-involved direct sales model that offers intensive education, training and customer service. We believe this philosophy and model not only enables us to differentiate our products and our overall company from competitors, but also to expand our addressable market by educating Eye Care Professionals ("ECPs"ophthalmologists and optometrists (together, "ECPs"), patients and other stakeholders on our products and evolving treatment paradigms. Outside of the U.S., we have historically sold OMNI primarily through a network of distributors, although we began employing a smallestablished direct sales force outside ofcommercial operations in the United StatesKingdom and Germany. We sell OMNI in 2021.several other countries through distributors.

We sell OMNI and SION to facilities where ophthalmic surgeons perform outpatient procedures, mainlysuch as ambulatory surgeryservice centers ("ASCs") and hospital outpatient departments ("HOPDs"), which are typically reimbursed by Medicare or private payors for procedures using our products. We sell TearCare to optometrist and ophthalmologist practices. Currently, there is no meaningful reimbursement coverage by Medicare or private payors for meibomian gland disease ("MGD") procedures, including TearCare, and patients typically pay out-of-pocket for TearCare. We are continuing our controlled commercial launch and are focused on our comprehensive, clinical data-driven long-term market development plan that aims to improve awareness and patient access to TearCare. We have dedicated meaningful resources to execute our commercial strategy and we continue to expand our sales organization through additional sales representatives and territories. The overall success of our approach to eyecare to date is evidenced by the over 120,000180,000 estimated uses of OMNISurgical Glaucoma products and its directtheir predicates in over 1,5001,900 hospitals and ASCs in the U.S. and Europe, and over 20,00040,000 estimated uses of TearCare in over 7501,300 eyecare facilities in the U.S. through June 30, 2022.2023.

We do not currently operate noany manufacturing facilities and instead contract with third parties for our production requirements. We believe our suppliers will be able to meet our current and anticipated manufacturing needs across all our products. We plan to continue to utilize third party contract manufacturers for our products and any related components.

Our gross marginRevenue in our Surgical Glaucoma segment for the threesix months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $38.7 million and 2021 was 87.7%$29.8 million, respectively, with gross margins for the same period of 87.6% and 85.2%88.4%, respectively. Beginning with the production of finished goods inventory in the first quarter of 2021, we shifted our primary production of OMNI from a U.S.-based third-party contract manufacturer,The Company continues to a lower cost, higher volume contract manufacturer in Asia. We are in the process of supplementing this OMNI production capacity with a U.S.-based contract manufacturer. Thesefocus on cost optimization initiatives contributedefforts to the increase in gross margins in our Surgical Glaucoma segment. Our gross marginRevenue in our Dry Eye segment for the threesix months ended June 30, 2022 and 20212023 was 40.8% and 2.7%, respectively. The TearCare System includes$3.6 million, with gross margin of 54.4%. In the SmartHub component, which is typically only sold in initial purchase orders, and single-use SmartLids which are sold as partprior year comparable period, Dry Eye revenue was $2.3 million, with a gross margin of initial purchase orders and through repeat orders as the ECP performs procedures over time. 0.6%. Given the earlier stage of TearCare’s commercial development, we expect our Dry Eye segment’s gross margins to be lower than our Surgical Glaucoma segment’s gross margins for the near and medium-term due to the allocation of fixed labor and overhead costs to the segment's cost of goods sold.

We believe in the importance of continued strategic investment in initiatives that: further demonstrate our products’ clinical effectiveness and safety to potential customers, patients, payors and regulators; enhance our commercial capabilities, including resources dedicated to sales, marketing and education; ensure the broadest possible patient access to the treatment alternatives that our products are cleared to offer; enhance and improve upon our existing product technologies; and allow us to innovate new products, devices or drugs, in glaucoma and ocular surface disease or in new eye disease areas. As a result, we intend to continue to invest in clinical studies, sales and marketing, education initiatives, market access, and product development. However, we are also focused on disciplined expenditures, and seek to grow our operating expenses at a lower rate than revenue. Because of these and other factors, we expect to continue to incur net losses for at least the next several fiscal years. Moreover,years, and we expect to incur expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and those of the Nasdaq Stock Market, additional insurance expenses, investor relations activities and other administrative and professional services. As a result of these and other factors, we may require and seek additional debt and equity financing to fund our operations and planned growth.

To date, our primary sources of capital hashave been private placements of redeemable convertible preferred stock, debt financing agreements, the sale of common stock in our initial public offering ("IPO"),IPO, and revenue from the sale of our products. In July 2021, we completed our IPO, receiving net proceeds of $252.2 million. As of June 30, 2022,2023, we had an outstanding term loan balance of $35.0 million (excluding debt discount and amortized debt issuance costs), cash and cash equivalents of $220.1$154.5 million and an accumulated deficit of $200.1$271.1 million.

Impact of COVID-19

The global COVID-19 pandemic impacted and is expected to continue to impact demand for our products, which are used in procedures and therapies that are considered elective. Although some of these governmental restrictions have since been lifted or scaled back, recent and future surges of COVID-19 may result in restrictions being re-implemented in response to efforts to reduce the spread of COVID-19. As elective eyecare procedures in many facilities that utilize our products were temporarily suspended by governmental authorities, many patients avoided visiting ECPs, and, even in areas that allowed elective procedures, ECPs and healthcare facilities in general substantially reduced or in some cases halted, the scheduling and performance of such procedures. The decrease in demand for our products due to COVID-19 most significantly impacted our revenues in the latter part of the first quarter and the first half of the second quarter of 2020. As vaccine availability and the vaccinated population increases across the U.S., the recovery of our end markets resumed in the second quarter of 2021. Our normal business operations were again disrupted by resurgence of the Delta variant in the third quarter of 2021 and emergence of the Omicron variant in the fourth quarter of 2021 and into early 2022.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations is unknown and will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration and severity of the COVID-19 outbreak (including prevalence and effect of the delta variant and other potential COVID-19 variants), the status of health and safety actions taken to contain its spread and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments or we may direct, any resurgence of COVID-19 that may occur and how quickly and to what extent economic and operating conditions normalize within the markets in which we operate. The COVID-19 pandemic could disrupt the operations of our third-party manufacturers and other suppliers. Although we have not experienced material disruptions in our supply chain to date, we cannot predict how long the pandemic and measures intended to contain the spread of COVID-19 will continue and what effect COVID-19 and the associated

24


containment measures will have on our suppliers and vendors, in particular for any of our suppliers and vendors that may not qualify as essential businesses and suffer more significant disruptions to their business operations. We are working closely with our manufacturing partners and suppliers to help ensure that we are able to source key components and maintain appropriate inventory levels to meet customer demand.

Factors Affecting ourOur Business and Results of Operations

We believe there are several important factors that have impacted and that will continue to impact our business and results of operations. ThereExcept as described in Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors," there have been no material changes to such factors from those described in our 20212022 Form 10-K under the heading "Factors Affecting our Business and Results of Operations."

Components of ourOur Results of Operations

Revenue

We currently derive the majority of our U.S. revenue from the sale of our OMNI and SION products to ASCs and HOPDs and our TearCare products to ophthalmology and optometry practices. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, the revenuesrevenue from our Surgical Glaucoma segment which included OMNI, accounted for over 90% of our total revenues.revenue. Substantially all of our revenuesrevenue for both periods were generated from sales within the U.S. Our OMNISurgical Glaucoma customers place orders based on their expected procedure volume and reorder as needed, typically on a biweekly, monthly or bimonthly basis. Our TearCare customers typically purchase a TearCare System which consists of one or more SmartHubs, multiple single-use TearCare SmartLids® ("SmartLids") and other accessories. After utilizing their initial inventory, customers can reorder SmartLids as needed. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of our revenue for either the three or six months ended June 30, 20222023 and 2021.2022.

The growth in our revenue is driven by the demand for elective surgery and treatment utilizing our products. Such demand is often lower during summer months because of ECP vacations and in winter months in certain parts of the world because of fewer business or surgery days due to holidays and adverse weather conditions.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin

Our products are produced by third-party manufacturers. Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of amounts paid for our products to third-party manufacturers, and our manufacturing overhead costs, which consist primarily of personnel expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, and reserves for excess, obsolete and

23


non-sellable inventory. Cost of goods sold also includes depreciation expenses for production equipment which we provide to our third-party manufacturers and certain direct costs, such as shipping and handling costs.

We calculate gross margin as gross profit divided by revenue. Our gross margin has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, including differences in segment gross margins, changes in average selling prices, product sales mix, production and ordering volumes, manufacturing costs, product yields, and headcount. In general, we expect our gross margins to increase over the long-term to the extent our production and ordering volumes increase and to the extentas we spread the fixed portion of our overhead costs over a larger number of units produced. We intend to use our design, engineering and manufacturing know-how and capabilities to further advance and improve the efficiency of our suppliers’ manufacturing processes, which we believe will reduce costs and increase our gross margins. Our gross margins could fluctuate from quarter to quarter as we transition to new suppliers, introduce new products, and adopt new manufacturing processes and technologies.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development ("R&D") expenses consist primarily of costs associated with engineering, product development, clinical studies to develop and support our products, including clinical trial design, clinical trial site initiation and study costs, internal and external costs associated with our regulatory compliance and quality assurance functions, medical affairs, cost of products used for clinical trials and other costs associated with products and technologies – either new or enhancements of existing platforms – that are in development. These expenses also include personnel expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, supplies, consulting, prototyping, testing, materials, travel expenses, depreciation expenses for equipment and an allocation of ITinformation technology ("IT") and facility overhead

25


expenses. Our R&D expenses as a percentage of revenue may vary over time depending on the level and timing of new product development efforts, as well as clinical development, clinical trial and other related activities. We expect our R&D expenses to increase for the next several years as we continue to invest in our active clinical trial program, develop new products, and improve our existing products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation related to selling, marketing and corporate functions, allocation of IT and facility overhead expenses, bad debt expense, finance, legal and human resource costs. Other SG&A expenses include training, travel expenses, promotional activities, marketing initiatives, market research and analysis, conferences and trade shows, professional services fees (including external legal, audit, consulting and tax fees), insurance costs, and general corporate expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists primarily of interest incurred on our outstanding indebtedness and non-cash interest related to the amortizationaccretion of debt discount and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with our outstanding loan.Term Loan agreement.

Other Income, (Expense), Net

Other income, (expense), net primarily consists of interest and amortization on held-to-maturity investments in treasury securities, as well as, gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of the fair value of our redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability. The redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants were exercised in 2021 and the final fair value of the warrant liability was reclassified to stockholders’ equity. We will no longer record any related periodic fair value adjustments.securities.

The overall increase in Surgical Glaucoma revenue was primarily attributable to a significantan increase in the number of OMNI and SION units sold in the three months ended June 30, 2022 as2023. This growth in units was driven by both a result of growth in the number of facilities ordering OMNI and SION, as well as an increase in unit utilization per ordering facility. Our Dry Eye revenuesrevenue increased in the three months ended June 30, 20222023 versus the comparable period in 20212022 due to the continued growth in our installedcustomer base of facilities that have purchased TearCare.and an increase in total TearCare procedures performed.

The Term Loan agreement includes a maturity date of November 1, 2025 and includes a stated floating interest rate that is reserve-adjusted SOFR, plus 7.00%. Principal payments under the Term Loan are scheduled to begin in December 2023. However, we currently expect to meet certain conditions, which, if satisfied, will delay the commencement of principal payments to December 2024. In addition, the Term Loan contains a provision for a final payment fee of 6.0% of the $35.0 million Term Loan balance, which has been partially accrued and recorded as a long-term interest payable in other noncurrent liabilities of $1.4 million as of June 30, 2023 and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2022.

In conjunction with the initial funding of the 2020 Term Loan in 2020, we issued a 10-yearten-year warrant to the Lender to purchase 300,000 shares of our Series F redeemable convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of $21.88 per share, or the 2020 MidCap Warrant, with the estimated fair value of $1.8 million. The 2020 MidCap Warrants were recorded at the fair value as a debt discount and as a warrant liability. The debt discount is being accreted using the effective interest method as interest expense over the contractual period of four years for the 2020 Term Loan.

2020 Revolver

The maturity dateMidCap Warrant was automatically converted into a common stock warrant in connection with the IPO and subsequently exercised in the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Accordingly, the 2020 Revolver was amended to November 1, 2025 and the stated floating interest rate was adjusted to reserve-adjusted LIBOR plus 4.50%. As of June 30, 2022, $5.0 million was available to be drawn under the 2020 Revolver whichMidCap Warrant no longer remains undrawn. Other key terms of the 2020 Revolver remained substantially unchanged compared to those of 2019 Revolver.outstanding.

Lease Agreements

Our corporate headquarters are located in Menlo Park, California, where we lease approximately 10,82311,000 square feet of office, research and development, engineering and laboratory space pursuant to a lease that commenced on August 1, 2021, and expires on August 31, 2024. We also lease approximately 2,040 square feet of office space, which is primarily used by our commercial leadership team, in Southlake, Texas, pursuant to a lease that commenced on April 30, 2019 and expires on May 15, 2024.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues,revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

32


An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably possible could materially impact the financial statements. We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with revenue recognition and stock-based compensation havehas the greatest potential impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, we consider thesethis to be oura critical accounting policies and estimates.estimate.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, included under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our 20212022 Form 10-K and in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.Report.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (JOBS Act) permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make comparison of our financialsfinancial statements to those of other public companies more difficult.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

As of June 30, 2022,2023, there are no significant Accounting Standard Updates (ASU's)(ASUs) issued and not yet adopted, that are expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks primarily include interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. There have been no material changes to such risks from those described in our 20212022 Form 10-K under "Item 3 - Quantitativethe heading "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk."

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controlsDisclosure Controls and proceduresProcedures

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal financial officers,accounting officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer concluded that, as a result of the material weaknessesweakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. However, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, has concluded that, notwithstanding the identified material weaknessesweakness in our internal control over financial reporting, the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly

33


Report on Form 10-Q fairly presented,present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.

Remediation effortsEfforts on previously reported material weaknessesPreviously Reported Material Weaknesses

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements in connection with our IPO, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness related to a lack of sufficient full-time accounting personnel with requisite experience and deep technical accounting knowledge to (i) identify and resolve complex accounting issues under GAAP, and (ii) enable appropriate segregation of duties and reviews over the financial reviews overclose and reporting process.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, our management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of our board of directors, designed and implemented measures to remediate the control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness and completed testing of internal controls. These remediation efforts, which continued initiatives that began during the year ended December 31, 2021, included the following:

31


significantly increased our accounting and financial reporting personnel, including the hiring of CPAs, and technical accounting and SEC reporting resources with requisite technical accounting knowledge; and
designed and implemented controls to formalize review procedures around the financial close and reporting process.

We have implemented and are in process with appropriate segregation of implementing additional measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate this material weakness, includingduties (i) the hiring of personnel with technical accounting and financial reporting experience and (ii) the implementation of improved accounting and financial reporting procedures and systems to improve the completeness, timeliness and accuracy of our financial reporting and disclosures including the assessment of more judgmental areas of accounting. We are committed

While significant progress has been made to continuing to improve our internal control processes and we will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures.

We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, and are continuing to implement, will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness we have identified or avoid potential future material weaknesses. While we believe that our efforts have improved our internal control over financial reporting, remediationnot all aspects of our past material weakness have been sufficiently remediated. The remaining aspect of the material weaknessesweakness relates to the lack of sufficient accounting resources with deep technical accounting knowledge to identify and resolve complex accounting issues in a timely manner. Remediation of the material weakness will require further validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internalthe applicable remedial controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles, and we cannot assure you that we have identified all, or that we will not in the future have additional material weaknesses.cycles.

Changes in internal control over financial reportingInternal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes intended to remediate the material weakness noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Please refer toExcept as set forth in Note 6, Commitments and Contingencies, in our notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report, we do not believe we are currently a party to any legal proceedings, regulatory matters, or other disputes or claims which, if determined adversely to us, would, individually or taken together, have a material adverse effect on Form 10-Q.our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity or future prospects. However, regardless of the merits of the claims raised or the outcome, legal proceedings, regulatory matters, and other disputes and claims may have an adverse impact on us as a result of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management time and resources, and other factors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

ThereExcept as set forth below, we are not aware of any material changes to the risk factors set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" in the 2022 Form 10-K, which are incorporated herein by reference. The risks described in the 2022 Form 10-K are not the only ones we face. Additional risks we currently do not know about or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition, operating results, liquidity, and future prospects.

Risks Related to Our Business

We may not be able to incrementally secure or maintain adequate levels of third-party coverage and reimbursement for procedures in which our Surgical Glaucoma or TearCare products are used, and third parties may rescind or modify their coverage or delay payments related to these products.

We derive revenue from sales of OMNI and SION to physicians, ASCs, and HOPDs, which typically bill all or a portion of the costs and fees associated with our products to various third-party payors, including Medicare, Medicaid, private commercial insurance companies, health maintenance organizations and other healthcare-related organizations, and then bill patients for any applicable deductibles or co-payments. Internationally, medical reimbursement systems vary significantly from country to country, with some countries limiting medical centers’ spending through fixed budgets, regardless of levels of patient treatment, and other countries requiring application for, and approval of, government or third-party reimbursement. As a result, access to adequate coverage and reimbursement for procedures in which our Surgical Glaucoma products are used by third-party payors is essential

32


to their acceptance and adoption by patients and ECPs.

We also derive revenue from sales of TearCare to ECPs and eye care clinics, which bill all or a portion of the costs and fees associated with treatments and products to patients or, on a limited basis, to third-party payors. We believe that access to adequate coverage and reimbursement for procedures in which TearCare is used by third-party payors is important to the broad acceptance and adoption of TearCare. Currently, no Medicare Administrative Contractors ("MACs") have been no material changesformal policies establishing coverage for the TearCare procedure; however, MACs from time to time may include, and we are currently aware of three MACs that have included, low payment rates for TearCare procedures in their fee schedules that, if not removed or increased to what we believe is an appropriate reimbursement level, could adversely impact our efforts to achieve reimbursement for TearCare that is sufficient to support its broad commercial growth and adoption. Further, commercial payers may from time to time make “no coverage” or similar determinations with respect to risk factors previously disclosedour TearCare product that could hamper our efforts to drive broad commercial adoption of TearCare. We are pursuing a comprehensive long-term market development and patient access plan for TearCare and focusing our efforts on partnering with key strategic accounts to pursue prior authorization approvals and reimbursement claims for procedures in which TearCare is used, but there is no guarantee that we will be successful. If patients are not willing to pay for procedures in which TearCare is used, or if third-party payors continue to refuse to provide coverage and reimbursement, or provide insufficient levels of coverage and reimbursement, it could have a negative impact on ECPs’ adoption of TearCare and sales of TearCare, which could adversely affect our business.

Third-party payors, whether foreign or domestic, or governmental or commercial, are developing increasingly sophisticated methods of controlling healthcare costs. In addition, no uniform policy of coverage and reimbursement for procedures using our products exists among third-party payors. Therefore, coverage and reimbursement for procedures using our products can differ significantly from payor to payor. Obtaining and maintaining coverage and reimbursement can be a time-consuming process that could require us to provide supporting scientific, clinical and cost-effectiveness data for the use of our products. We may not be able to provide data sufficient to satisfy governmental and third-party payors that procedures using our products should be covered and reimbursed. With regard to our international sales efforts, even if and as we succeed in bringing our products to market in foreign countries, uncertainties regarding future healthcare policy, legislation and regulation, as well as private market practices, could affect our ability to sell our products in commercially acceptable quantities at acceptable prices.

In the United States, the American Medical Association ("AMA") generally assigns specific billing codes for procedures under a coding system known as Current Procedure Terminology ("CPT"), which surgeons use to bill third-party payors and receive reimbursement. Once a permanent CPT code ("Category I CPT code") is established for a service, CMS establishes payment levels under Medicare, while other payors may establish rates and coverage rules independently. Canaloplasty followed by trabeculotomy procedures using OMNI are typically billed using the Category I CPT code 66174, which describes canaloplasty. Coding for ophthalmic surgical procedures is complex, and changes to the codes used to report services performed with our products may result in significant changes in reimbursement, which could negatively impact our revenue. For example, in 2021 Form 10-K.the RVS Update Committee ("RUC") of the AMA reevaluated the physician work associated with CPT code 66174. As a result of this RUC review, CMS reduced the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule amount associated with this service from approximately $950 in 2021 to $761 in 2022 and approximately $622 in 2023.

The AMA maintains a subset of temporary CPT codes ("Category III CPT codes") used for new and emerging technologies. For example, TearCare was assigned a Category III CPT code effective beginning January 1, 2020. Coverage for Category III CPT codes is often limited. Medicare does not generally establish national payment rates for Category III CPT codes on the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. As a result, individual Medicare contractors and private payors may establish their own payment rates for services described by Category III CPT codes, as has been the case with TearCare, which payment rates are subject to change, may be variable across Medicare contractors, may be materially below the final reimbursement rates that we are currently targeting, or may determine not to reimburse services described by Category III CPT codes.

Payors also continually review new and existing technologies for possible coverage and can deny or reverse coverage for new or existing products and procedures. There can be no assurance that third-party payor policies provide coverage, or will continue to provide coverage, for procedures in which OMNI is used. If coverage policies change such that Medicare no longer covers procedures in which our products are used, there would be a material

33


adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, MACs could issue local coverage determinations ("LCDs") that could restrict the patients eligible for treatment with our products or that are otherwise unfavorable to our business. In June 2023, for instance, five MACs issued draft LCDs that propose to establish or update Medicare coverage policies for micro-invasive glaucoma surgery, or MIGS. The draft LCDs propose to identify certain non-implantable MIGS procedures as investigational and not reasonable and necessary in the jurisdictions where these MACS administer Medicare Part B benefits, including but not limited to canaloplasty followed by trabeculotomy performed with OMNI, and goniotomy procedures that may be performed with SION. If finalized in their current form, the draft LCDs would establish a policy of Medicare non-coverage for these procedures and other non-implantable MIGS procedures in these Medicare jurisdictions. The states served by these MACs accounted for approximately 63% of our Surgical Glaucoma revenue in 2022. If we are not successful in reversing these or other proposed non-coverage policies, or if these MACS or other third-party payors that currently cover or reimburse procedures in which our products are used reverse or limit their coverage in the future, or if other third-party payors issue similar policies, these events would likely have a material and adverse impact on our revenue, results of operations, and financial condition.

Further, we believe that future coverage and reimbursement may be subject to increased restrictions, such as additional prior authorization requirements, both in the United States and in international markets. Third-party coverage and reimbursement for procedures using our products or any of our products in development for which we may receive regulatory clearance, certification or approval may not be available or adequate in either the United States or international markets. Further, other devices or treatments that compete with our products may be more widely covered or subject to different co-pay policies and requirements, which could impact demand for our products. If hospital, surgical center, ECP and/or patient demand for our products is adversely affected by third-party reimbursement policies and decisions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Use of Proceeds

In July 2021, we completed our IPO. All shares sold were registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-257320), as amended (the "Registration Statement"), declared effective by the SEC on July 14, 2021.

The net proceeds from our IPO have been used and will be used, together with our cash and cash equivalents: (i) to fund ongoing and future clinical trials of OMNI and TearCare; (ii) to support the marketing and sales efforts for our products; (iii) for research and development; and (iii) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

There has been no material change in the intended use of proceeds from ourthe IPO as described in ourthe Registration Statement.
