Don't look now, but Abbott Labs (NYSE: ABT  ) is about to buy itself a bit more growth.

Simultaneous with its announcement of a $310 million acquisition in the vascular stent space Monday, Abbott also announced that it will be spending a further $250 million -- and perhaps as much as $400 million with subsequent milestone payments -- to acquire privately held cataract surgical equipment maker OptiMedica.

OptiMedica, however, has a Catalys Precision Laser System that allows surgeons to perform at least some incisions with computer-guided,�"femtosecond" laser�technology. Abbott notes that the system in question is cleared for sale in both Europe and the U.S. already.
