attorney-in-fact to do any or all of the following:

     (a)     execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's capacity as an
             officer or director of STAAR Surgical Company (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4
             and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
             and the rules thereunder;

     (b)     do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned that may be
             necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4 or 5, complete
             and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and file such form with the
             United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or
             similar authority; and

     (c)     take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing
             which, in the opinion of the attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the interest
             of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being understood that the documents
             executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this
             Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
             conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's
             discretion.

      The undersigned hereby grants to each attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and
perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the
exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the
undersigned might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or
revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-
fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of
Attorney and the rights and powers herein granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not
assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of the undersigned's responsibilities to comply
with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

      This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the undersigned is no
longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 (or such forms as may in the future be substituted
therefore under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act) with respect to the undersigned's
holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the
undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be
executed as of this 15th day November, 2010.
