Sunrise Technologies International, Inc. Comments on Market Activity
FREMONT, Calif., Nov. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunrise Technologies International, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNRS - news)
In response to questions from the investment community, Sunrise knows of no reason why the volume in the Company's stock rose today. Sunrise noted there have not been any adverse events to account for the exceedingly high trading volume and decline in the common stock price. The Company is progressing with its business plan of launching its Hyperion LTK(TM) system.
The Company notes that several sites such as AOL and Excite posted press releases from SurgiLight (OTC Bulletin Board: SRGL - news) that erroneously got placed on the Sunrise quote site. Sunrise's trading symbol is ``SNRS''. In fact, one of the headline captions incorrectly labels a SurgiLight press release as a Sunrise press release, which caused confusion among investors. Sunrise is investigating how these errors occurred.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the Company's HYPERION(TM) LTK System on June 30, 2000 for the temporary reduction of hyperopia in patients with +0.75 TO +2.50 diopters of MRSE with less than or equal to +/- 0.75 diopters of astigmatism, who are 40 years of age or older with documented stability of refraction for the prior 6 months, as demonstrated by a change of less than or equal to 0.50D in spherical and cylindrical components of the manifest refraction. The magnitude of correction with this treatment diminishes over time, with some patients retaining some or all of their refractive correction.
