Dear Mr. Eckstein:
 
As discussed with the staff, due to the demands of ongoing litigation STAAR’s legal department has limited resources to respond to the follow-up comments contained in the above-referenced letter from the staff.  Accordingly, we respectfully request an extension in the time permitted for our response until November 30, 2009.
 
Should you have any questions, please contact me at 626-303-7902 or by facsimile at 626-358-3409.
 
 
 
Very truly yours,
 
/s/Deborah Andrews
