Investment Highlights 80M people with Glaucoma; 25M diagnosed Estimated 100M people with diabetes-related eye disease MicroPulse® Patented and Trademarked Significant data supports clinical and economic benefit Entering rapidly growing Glaucoma market Expanding focus on captive disposables business model Leverage and stability for future expansion Strong global brand built over 30 years Underserved and Growing Patient Population Differentiated Laser Technology Recent Transformational Shift in Business Model Established Revenue Base and Worldwide Customers Source: Market Scope estimate as of 2015

Slide 4

Our Focus: Sight-Threatening Eye Diseases Retinal Disease Current focus on diabetic macular edema (DME), which is a common complication of diabetes and can lead to blindness Glaucoma Glaucoma is associated with high intra-ocular pressure (IOP) High IOP damages the optic nerve and is the leading cause of blindness for people over 60 years old Treatment goal: reduce IOP by increasing outflow or decreasing inflow of intraocular fluid; delay progression of disease; reduce cost Treatment goal: reduce retinal swelling; preserve/improve vision at a reduced cost

Slide 5

Shortcomings in the Treatment of Glaucoma and Retinal Disease IRIDEX’s MicroPulse® Laser Therapy delivers a differentiated laser treatment that provides safe, effective, and proven treatment for targeted sight-threatening eye disease PHARMACEUTICALS Requires continuous lifetime treatment High cost Significant compliance issue Side effects LEGACY LASERS Lack durable outcomes Not repeatable Side effects INVASIVE SURGERY High complication rate High failure rate Limited in scope Irreversible

Slide 6

Our Proprietary MicroPulse® Laser Therapy Differentiated algorithm Clinically effective Allows tissue to cool between laser pulses, minimizing damage

Retinal Disease Business Overview

Slide 19

Shortcomings of Alternate Treatment Options for DME PHARMACEUTICALS (current standard of care) Only provides short term vision stability Requires repeated eye injections (every ~six weeks) Painful Complications High cost High financial cost to payers High time burden to patients and physicians LEGACY LASERS (less common) Provides long term vision stability but: Tissue Damage Risk of vision loss

Slide 20

MicroPulse® Retina Laser Therapy Provides Significant Clinical and Economical Value Proposition Scarring clearly visible using legacy laser technology Scarring non-existent using MicroPulse Legacy Laser Pre-treatment 1 Year Post-treatment MicroPulse Laser Therapy Pre-treatment 1 Year Post-treatment No visible tissue damage Long-term vision stabilization Significantly lower cost: financial and treatment burden

Slide 21

Established Customer Base and Broad Global Support Substantial Clinical Evidence supports MicroPulse® for treatment of DME Safety 10-year follow-up data proved no detectable retina damage Efficacy Randomized controlled trials showed improved vision and improved retinal sensitivity Over 135 published studies Efficiency More treatable patients Improved patient pass-through rates Reduce financial cost and treatment burden Economics Using anti-VEGF and MicroPulse therapy may reduce treatment burden and costs Established More than 1 million patients treated Over 1,000 systems sold More than 65 countries served
