SheerVision Delivers Another Solid Quarter; Reports Profitable Results for First Quarter Fiscal Year 2008

ROLLING HILLS ESTATES, Calif.--(Business Wire)--SheerVision, Inc. (OTCBB:SVSO), a leading provider of advanced
surgical loupes and light systems, today announced results for the
first quarter of its 2008 fiscal year, that ended November 30, 2007.

   First Quarter Highlights

   -- Achieved the second consecutive quarter of profitability as a
direct result of the continued focus on the reduction of operating
expenses.

   -- Further developed the International Distributor Program to
increase the number of partnerships with market leaders in specific
geographic regions throughout the world.

   -- Developed several enhancements to the Original FireFly and
FireFly Infinity Headlight systems, with the Original FireFly
Headlight system recognized as one of the "Best Products of the Year"
by the leading independent non-profit dental education and product
testing foundation.

   Revenue for the first fiscal quarter of 2008 was $1.124 million, a
decrease of 4 percent when compared to revenue of $1.174 million in
the same period in 2007. First quarter revenues overall were lower
than expected due to a backlog as we experienced manufacturing delays
in the newly enhanced components of our Firefly LED light systems,
however sales relating to our loupe product lines increased by over
20% as compared to the previous fiscal quarter ended November 30,
2006. This increase was aided by the development of our international
distributor program implemented during the last half of fiscal year
2007.

   Operating expenses for the quarter totaled just $725,000, a
reduction of over $453,000 when compared to the $1.178 million spent
in the first fiscal quarter of 2007.

   Net income for the quarter ended November 30, 2007 was $19,788, or
($0.00) per basic and diluted share. This compares to a net loss of
$325,768, or ($0.03) per basic and diluted share for the quarter ended
November 30, 2006. Basic and diluted shares outstanding were 12.694
million as of November 30, 2007 and 12.278 million as of November 30,
2006.

   "SheerVision continued executing its cost containment strategies
and operating disciplines which allowed our team to deliver another
profitable quarter. In fiscal year 2007, we began expansion of our
international presence, developed several new product designs, and
improved our product pipeline. In fiscal 2008 we are concentrating on
expanding our OEM capabilities and meeting product demands on a real
time basis. We are extremely excited about the upgrades to our light
systems and our expanded manufacturing capabilities that should be in
full production by fiscal midyear," commented Suzanne Lewsadder, Chief
Executive Officer of SheerVision, Inc.
