Item 5.  Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.

         On June 22, 2004, Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. consummated its
previously announced private offering of $350 million aggregate principal
amount of 2.50% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, including $50
million issued pursuant to the initial purchasers' option and issued the press
release attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and by this reference incorporated
herein. Certain agreements entered into in connection with the offering are
attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 hereto and are by this reference incorporated
herein.

         The offering was made only to qualified institutional buyers in
accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. As previously
announced, AMO intends to use up to approximately $84 million of the net
proceeds of the offering to repurchase up to all of the $70 million aggregate
principal amount of its outstanding 9 1/4 percent senior subordinated notes
due 2010 and to make the related consent payments pursuant to a cash tender
offer and consent solicitation commenced on June 9, 2004 and the remainder to
fund a portion of the purchase price for AMO's pending acquisition of the
ophthalmic surgical business of Pfizer Inc. and for general corporate
purposes. The actual amount used in the tender offer will depend on the number
of tenders received by AMO and may vary from the above amount. The acquisition
of Pfizer's ophthalmic surgical business is subject to customary closing
conditions. The offering is not conditioned on completion of the tender offer
and consent solicitation or the acquisition.

         The notes are AMO's general unsecured obligations and rank
contractually equal with AMO's other unsecured and senior subordinated
obligations, including its outstanding 9 1/4 percent senior subordinated notes
due 2010 and its outstanding 3 1/2 percent convertible senior subordinated
notes due 2023. AMO will pay interest on the notes on January 15 and July 15
of each year, beginning January 15, 2005. In addition, beginning with the
six-month interest period commencing January 15, 2010, AMO will pay contingent
interest in cash during any six-month interest period in which the trading
price of the notes for each of the five trading days ending on the second
trading day immediately preceding the first day of the applicable six-month
interest period equals or exceeds 120% of the principal amount of the notes.
During any interst period when contingent interest is payable, the contingent
interest payable per $1,000 principal amount of notes will equal 0.25% of the
average trading price of $1,000 principal amount of notes during such five
trading day period.

         Each $1,000 principal amount of the notes will be convertible at each
holder's option into 19.9045 shares of AMO's common stock (which represents an
initial conversion price of approximately $50.24 per share), subject to
adjustment as provided in the Indenture filed as an exhibit hereto, only
during specified periods under the following circumstances: (i) during any
fiscal quarter commencing after September 24, 2004 if the closing sale price
of AMO's common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive
trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal
quarter exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on that 30th trading
day; (ii) subject to certain exceptions, during the five business days after
any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000
principal amount of notes for each day of such measurement period was less
than 95% of the product of the closing sale price of AMO's common stock and
the conversion rate then in effect; (iii) if after the earlier of (A) the date
the notes are rated by both Standard & Poor's Ratings Services and Moody's
Investor Services and (B) thirty business days from the date the notes are
issued, during any period in which the credit rating assigned to the notes by
either agency falls below a specified level, or if either of these rating
agencies does not rate or no longer rates the notes, or if either of these
rating agencies suspends or withdraws the rating assigned to the notes; (iv)
AMO has called the notes for redemption; (v) a fundamental change has
occurred; or (vi) during prescribed periods upon the occurrence of certain
corporate events. Upon conversion, AMO will have the right to deliver, in lieu
of shares of its common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of its
common stock. AMO also will have the right to irrevocably elect to satisfy its
conversion obligation with respect to the principal amount of the notes to be
converted in cash, with any remaining amount to be satisfied in shares of its
common stock.

         AMO may redeem some or all of the notes for cash on or after January
20, 2010 in accordance with the Indenture. Each holder may require AMO to
repurchase all or a portion of its notes on January 15, 2010, July 15, 2014,
July 15, 2019, and upon a fundamental change. If any holder requires AMO to
repurchase its notes, subject to certain exceptions, AMO may choose to pay the
repurchase price in cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash
and shares of its common stock.

         AMO has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a shelf registration statement with respect
to the resale of the notes and the shares of its common stock issuable upon
conversion of the notes and to have the shelf registration statement declared
effective within 180 days after the original issuance of the notes.
