NOTE 1.           MANAGEMENT ADJUSTMENTS

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial  statements
be read in conjunction with the Registrant's September 30, 1995 Form 10-KSB. The
results of  operations  for the periods  ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full years.

     The  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  and other  information  furnished
herein  reflect all  adjustments  which are, in the opinion of management of the
Registrant,  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the  results of the interim
periods covered by this report.  Adjustments to the financial statements were of
a normal recurring nature.

     For the six  months  ended  March  31,  1996 and  1995,  both  primary  and
fully-diluted  earnings  per share  are  calculated  based  upon  6,879,511  and
6,869,511,  respectively,  average common shares  outstanding.  Shares  issuable
under common stock options were excluded  from the  computation  of earnings per
share because the effect was deemed to be  anti-dilutive.  At March 31, 1996 and
1995,  the  Registrant  had  1,176,900 and 951,700,  respectively,  common stock
options outstanding.


NOTE 2.           INCOME TAXES

     Under the  provisions of the Internal  Revenue  Code,  the  Registrant  has
available  net  operating  loss  and  business  tax  credit   carryforwards   of
approximately  $14,500,000 and $188,000,  respectively,  which expire in varying
amounts from 1996 through 2010.

     The net  operating  loss and  business tax credit  carryforwards  described
above give rise to a deferred tax asset of approximately $5,500,000.  This asset
is recorded  net of a  valuation  allowance  of the same  amount,  therefore  no
amounts are reflected in the accompanying balance sheet.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations.


     Financial  Condition.  (March 31, 1996 as compared to  September  30, 1995)
During the six month period ended March 31, 1996, the  Registrant's  net working
capital decreased  approximately  $517,600,  due primarily to the use of cash in
operations  and the resulting  operating  loss.  Cash has been used primarily to
fund  the  general   operations  of  the  Registrant   including   research  and
development, and to promote the sales and marketing of products.

     Principal  changes in the  components  of net  working  capital for the six
months  ended March 31, 1996  consist of a decrease in the  accounts  receivable
balance by $135,500,  a decrease in notes receivable of $110,000,  a decrease in
total inventory  levels by $55,200,  a reduction in prepaid expenses of $27,200,
and a reduction in current liabilities by $101,000.

     During the six month and three  month  (quarter)  periods  ended  March 31,
1996,  the  Registrant  experienced  negative  cash  flows  from  operations  of
approximately $277,400 and $103,900,  respectively, as compared to negative cash
flows from  operations of  approximately  $667,000 and  $405,100,  respectively,
during the  comparable  periods of the prior  fiscal year 1995.  This  aggregate
decrease in cash used for  operations  of $389,600 was a result of the following
significant factors:  Inventory levels were reduced by $55,200 during FY 1996 as
compared to cash used of $140,800 in FY 1995 for inventory increases,  resulting
in a net  reduction in cash  expenditures  of $196,000 for  inventory  activity.
Accounts  payable and accrued  expenses were reduced  during FY 1996 and FY 1995
requiring cash outlays of $101,000 and $19,000  respectively  for a net increase
in cash  payments of $82,000  during FY 1996.  Trade  accounts  receivable  cash
collections  totalled $135,500 during FY 1996 versus cash collections of $87,700
during FY 1995 for a net cash increase of $47,800.  A $110,000  note  receivable
was collected during FY 1996.

     To continue the  Registrant's  objective of  curtailing  operating  losses,
negative cash flow from operations and liquidity erosion further,  management is
continually  reviewing product profit margins and general expense accounts,  and
will reduce or eliminate all non-essential  expenditures.  Purchasing procedures
have also been implemented to ensure minimized product costs and to avoid excess
inventory  levels.  A distribution  agreement signed last fiscal year with Micro
Medical  Devices,  Inc. will allow the Registrant  more  flexibility in matching
inventory  requirements and purchases with currently  anticipated  sales of USES
products,  thereby reducing  inventory carrying costs. To date, sales pursuantto
this  agreement  have  been  minimal.  Management  of  the  Registrant  is  also
continuing to seek OEM customers for all product lines.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operation. (Continued)

     The Company also entered into a revised  license  agreement  with Dr. Edwin
Adair during  fiscal 1995 in an effort to reduce  patent  maintenance  costs and
other associated costs. In a related  agreement,  the Registrant's  Chairman has
agreed to forego his cash  royalty  payment  for  fiscal  1996 and  instead  has
accepted  stock  options  as a  replacement  in an effort to help  conserve  the
Company's  capital.  See the  Registrant's  September  30,  1995 form 10-KSB for
additional  information.  Without  significant  sales increases,  the Registrant
still anticipates negative cash flow from operations for fiscal 1996 and beyond.
The  Registrant's  future  viability  depends on its ability to generate cash to
fund it's operations.  In the short term, this was  accomplished  through equity
placements  during fiscal 1994, and in previous  fiscal years through loans from
the company's chairman. However, the Registrant's ability to fund its operations
will be dependant upon achieving profitability and in generating a positive cash
flow from  operations.  Unless the Registrant is able to increase sales revenues
and maintain  profitability  during fiscal 1996,  the  Registrant  may be facing
significant  working capital shortages beginning in and during fiscal year 1996.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve this goal.

     The Registrant  believes that its existing capital resources are sufficient
for the current  fiscal  year,  and the  Registrant  has planned no  significant
capital  expenditures.  The Registrant is not seeking  additional debt or equity
capital  at  this  time,  however  there  are  1,176,900  common  stock  options
outstanding as of March 31, 1996 (see note 1, "Management Adjustments"),  and if
exercised  (of which there can be no  assurance),  these  options  would provide
varying   amounts  of  additional   working   capital  to  the  Registrant  (see
Registrant's  form  S-3  filed  May 8,  1996).  If the  Registrant  does  obtain
additional capital (of which there can be no assurance),  the Registrant will be
able to  allocate  more  resources  to sales and  marketing  efforts  (including
negotiations with prospective OEM relationships), and research and development.

     Subsequent  to the  Registrant's  quarter  ended March 31, 1996,  on May 9,
1996,  the Registrant  announced  it's intent to form a Dental  Division for the
purpose of  manufacturing  and marketing,  on an OEM basis, an intra oral dental
camera. In conjunction with the formation of that division,  the Registrant also
announced  that it had retained  Michael  Williams  and Dave Wilson,  two dental
industry  veterans,  to lead the new division.  Prototypes  of the  Registrant's
intra oral camera have been released to potential  customers in  anticipation of
generating  orders,  but no assurances can be given as to the successful receipt
of any order.

     Revenue.  Total Sales for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were
$390,700 and $589,000, respectively, for a decrease of approximately $198,300 or
33.7%. The following  product groups incurred  significant  sales decreases over
the  comparable  period  of  fiscal  1995  in  the  following  amounts:  general
accessories  $92,300,  electronic video  laparoscope  (EVL's)  $53,100,  optical
catheters & accessories  $26,200,  and model 5970's $16,200.  Domestic,  non-OEM
sales accounted for 52% and 51% of total sales,  foreign sales accounted for 40%
and 36% of total  sales,  and OEM  sales  accounted  for 8% and 13% of the total
sales for the comparable periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     Total  domestic,  non-OEM sales for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995 were  $203,300 and $300,200,  respectively,  decreasing by $96,900 from the
fiscal 1995  comparable  period.  The  Registrant  is currently  taking steps to
introduce products such as the Universal Sterile Endoscopy System(TM) (USES) and
Coupler/Drape(TM)  which will address the combined  issues of cost and sterility
that plague the capital tight hospital market,  but no assurances of the success
of that strategy can be given.

         Condition and Results of Operation. (Continued)

     Foreign  sales  for the six  months  ended  March  31,  1996 and 1995  were
$155,700  and  $209,600,  respectively,  for a decrease of $53,900 or 26%.  This
decrease is due  primarily  to a decline in total sales levels to $62,100 for FY
1996 from $127,400 for FY 1995 by the Registrant's  South American  distributor.
In the long run the  Registrant  expects to  continue  expansion  of the foreign
distribution  network. It is expected that an eventual increase in revenues will
be provided from foreign  distributors as they become  established,  although no
assurances can be given as to the success of those efforts.

     Total OEM  sales  for the six  months  ended  March 31,  1996 and 1995 were
$31,800  and  $79,100,  respectively,  for a decrease  of  $47,300 or 60%.  This
reduction is primarily  attributable  to the Registrants  significantly  reduced
shipments of model 5990's to Endosurgical Development Corporation (EDC) and also
as a result  of  reduced  accessory  sales to Weck  Endoscopy  and Wolf  Medical
Instrument  Corporation over the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The
Registrant  is  attempting  to replace the OEM base lost  during  fiscal 1992 by
expanding  existing  business  with current OEM customers  and  cultivating  new
relationships  that  are in  the  beginning  stages  of  sales  such  as  Origin
Medsystems,  Inc., a subsidiary of the Eli Lilly Company. The Registrant expects
to expand  revenues  from all OEM  customers as well as attempt to add others in
the areas of general laparoscopy,  arthroscopy,  cardiovascular  surgery, dental
endoscopy,  as well as add a national  distributor for the Registrants  Lap-Wrap
product although no assurances can be given as to the success of those efforts.

     Cost of Goods Sold.  Cost of goods sold for the six months  ended March 31,
1996 and 1995 totalled  $375,300 and $514,100,  respectively,  for a decrease of
approximately  $138,800  or 27%.  Total cost of goods sold as a percent of sales
was 96.1% and 87.3%, respectively, for the same periods, respectively. This cost
of goods sold  amount  for  fiscal  1996  includes  a  significant  underapplied
overhead amount charged by management for underutilized  manufacturing capacity.
The increase of 8.8% as a percent of sales is primarily due to lower  production
volumes and charging excess overhead (excess manufacturing  capacity) to cost of
goods  sold.  Varying  sales mixes and sales  discounts  allowed OEM and foreign
distributors  are other  factors  contributing  to the cost of sales  percentage
increase.  Underutilized  overhead  variances will continue to adversely  affect
cost of goods  sold as a  percentage  of net  sales  until  such  time  that the
Registrant  increases its sales and production  volume or takes additional steps
to reduce its fixed costs currently included in overhead.

         Condition and Results of Operation. (Continued)

     Selling,  General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A). SG&A expenses for the
six  months  ended  March  31,  1996  and  1995  were   $588,800  and  $827,200,
respectively,  for a decrease of approximately  $238,400 or 28.8%. This decrease
is primarily due to the lack of royalty, insurance and other expenses ordinarily
incurred  on behalf of the  Registrant's  Chairman  foregone  in fiscal  1996 in
exchange for 120,000 of the Registrant's  common stock options,  per the amended
and restated  license  agreement  with the Chairman (see fiscal 1995 form 10-KSB
for a detailed  discussion).  Other significant expense reductions during fiscal
1996 versus the  comparable  period of fiscal 1995 include  significantly  fewer
inventory and patent writeoffs, reduced depreciation and amortization charges as
a substantial  amount of loaner equipment became fully depreciated during fiscal
1995, and cost cutting measures  instituted by Management  precipitated by lower
sales and production  values.  The  registrant  continues to reduce or eliminate
expenses in all areas when practical.

     Research and Development Costs. For the six months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995 R&D expenses  were $93,800 and  $70,600,  respectively,  for an increase of
approximately $23,200 or 32.9%. A significant portion of this increase is due to
projects related to electrical compatibility testing required to achieve TUV and
CE approval  markings which are required to successfully  market products in the
European common market countries.  Additional  research and development  expense
was  incurred on projects  related to the  Registrant's  new  intra-oral  dental
camera,  the Optical Catheter  System(TM) as it applies to a new cardio vascular
system,  and a new and improved version of the Lap-Wrap(TM)  family of products.
The  Registrant  will  continue to fund  research  and  development  as it deems
appropriate to maintain or gain a competitive advantage.
