FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LCA-VISION TO LIST ON EASDAQ

European Trading Gives Additional Visibility with Financial Community

CINCINNATI, October 25, 2000 -- LCA-Vision Inc. (NASDAQ NM: LCAV), a leading U.S. provider of laser vision correction services, today announced that its common stock will begin trading on the European Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (EASDAQ), the largest pan-European stock exchange, October 27, 2000, under the symbol "LCAV." LCA-Vision will continue to trade on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol "LCAV" in the U.S. Quotes will be found on Reuters under the symbol "LCAV.ED," on Bloomberg under the symbol "LCAV ES" and on Bridge under the symbol "XE; LCAV." No additional shares of LCA-Vision common stock will be issued in connection with its EASDAQ listing.

LCA-Vision's decision to list on EASDAQ is based largely on the Company's interest in reaching investors outside the U.S. and enhancing the liquidity of its stock. The Company's EASDAQ market makers will be Credit Lyonnais Securities, Knight Securities International Ltd. and Merrill Lynch International.

"The listing on EASDAQ is a logical step for the company," said LCA-Vision Chairman and CEO Stephen Joffe. "The listing will better serve our existing non-U.S. shareholders while providing increased access to a broad base of investors across Europe who prefer to trade in their own time zone."

LCA-Vision currently owns and operates 33 facilities in the U.S. plus two centers in Canada and one in Europe. In addition to its U.S., Canadian and European centers, LCA-Vision is currently licensing its business model to Japan's Rei Corporation, which has already opened one LasikPlus Center in Tokyo.
