			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Continued Company Growth Creates Need For Larger, More Specialized Facilities</em></p>
<p>Smithfield, RI –November, 2011 – Due to continuing double-digit growth, Heidelberg Engineering has announced its recent move into an upgraded and custom-built technical services facility in Rhode Island. Following the relocation of their U.S. Corporate Headquarters earlier this year, the technical services division has moved into a new facility specifically built and designed to meet their increased capacity needs. The new space nearly doubles the previous facilities square footage. The continued expansion comes after four years of double-digit growth built on the persistent success of the Company’s leading product, the SPECTRALIS<sup>® </sup>SD-OCT, a family of multi-modality diagnostic instruments for ophthalmic imaging.</p>
<p>“The strong continued growth of the Company speaks volumes during one of the biggest economic downturns in our nation’s history,” noted Travis Lindsay, General Manager and Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Heidelberg Engineering. “The new facilities reflect our position as the leading innovator of confocal scanning laser technology combined with OCT and will help us continue to provide first-in-class service for our customers.”</p>
<p><strong>About Heidelberg Engineering</strong><br />
Headquartered in Heidelberg, Germany, this privately-held company is a leader in light-based medical devices for ophthalmic applications. The company designs, manufactures and markets a variety of instruments that aid in the diagnosis and management of anterior and posterior disease of the eye. The U.S. corporate office is located in Carlsbad, California.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Heidelberg, Germany &#8211; October 20, 2011 &#8211; </strong>Heidelberg Engineering has released a new software for the SPECTRALIS product line. The version 5.4 adds the RegionFinder software to over 2,500 installed confocal laser scanning ophthalmoscopes with BluePeak Blue Laser Autofluorescence module. The RegionFinder allows the instrument to quantify and track dark areas on BluePeak images, typically used for following progression of geographic atrophy. The BluePeak technology helps clinicians to assess the health of the retina and helps to identify dry and wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Tracking geographic atrophy in dry AMD may be beneficial for determining use of a host of emerging therapeutics. At least 16 new therapies are under development to help slow or stop progression to wet AMD.</p>
<p>“The RegionFinder has been validated at our reading center to measure the primary endpoint in clinical trials on potential treatments of dry AMD,” said Glenn Jaffe, Professor of Ophthalmology, Chief, Vitreoretinal Service and Director, Duke Reading Center.</p>
<p>Frank Holz, Professor of Ophthalmology and Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at the University of Bonn added, “Heidelberg Engineering recognized early on the clinical importance of Blue Laser Autofluorescence in the management of AMD and supported the collaborative development of the RegionFinder with our department and reading center”.</p>
