Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 17, 2005 TLC Vision Corporation issued a press release announcing an amendment to its previously adopted Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement. The technical amendment has been made at the suggestion of a shareholder rights advocate group to more fully conform the Plan to their current guidelines. The amendment involves the addition of the following language to paragraph (iii) of the definition of "Pro Rata Acquisition": "and provided that the Person exercising such rights does not thereby acquire a greater percentage of such Voting Shares, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Voting Shares, so offered than the Person's percentage of Voting Shares Beneficially Owned immediately prior to such acquisition." A copy of the press release and the amended Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.
