Note B

Primary  earnings per share is computed based on the weighted  average number of
Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents  outstanding during the period. Common
Stock  equivalents  represent  the  dilutive  effect of the assumed  exercise of
certain outstanding  options.  The calculation of supplemental and fully diluted
earnings per share assumes the Convertible Subordinated Debentures are converted
into Common Stock at the beginning of the period and interest expense related to
the debentures, net of tax, is added to net income.

Note C

The amounts set forth in the  accompanying  statements are unaudited but, in the
opinion  of  management,  reflect  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of normal
accruals)  necessary for a fair  statement of the results of operations  for the
periods  presented.  Operating results for the three month period ended June 30,
1995 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended March 31,  1996.  It is  suggested  that the  condensed  consolidated
financial  statements  included herein be read in conjunction with the Company's
annual report on form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1995.

               Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
                       Operations and Financial Condition

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales

Sales for the three months ended June 30, 1995  increased 26% to $43.7  million,
compared  to $34.7  million the prior year.  Growth was  particularly  strong in
sales of plastic surgery products,  up 50% over the prior year. In October 1994,
the  Company  acquired  the  intraocular  lens  (IOL)  product  line of  Optical
Radiation  Corporation,  a  subsidiary  of  Benson  Eyecare  Corporation.   This
acquisition  accounted  for the large  increase  in  ophthalmology  sales in the
quarter.

                                     For the Three Months Ended
                                              June 30,
                                                                  Percent

Plastic surgery products        $ 23,112       $ 15,404            50.0%
Urology products                  11,598         12,951           -10.4%
Ophthalmology products             9,019          6,374            41.5%

                                $ 43,729       $ 34,729            25.9%


Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was 33.7% for the three months  ended June 30,  1995,  compared to
35.5% for the same period last year.  Increased  efficiencies  at the  Company's
Texas facility  accounted for most of the increase.  In addition,  the Company's
manufacturing plant in the Netherlands is now in full production. It had been in
a start up mode prior to this quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling,  general & administrative  expenses  decreased to 38.2% of sales in the
quarter  compared  to  38.8%  in  the  previous  year.  The  Company  is  seeing
productivity  improvements  in its sales  efforts,  particularly  in the plastic
surgery division.
<PAGE>

Research and Development

Research  and  development  expenses  were 7.8% of sales for the first  quarter,
compared to 6.9% for the prior year. The Company continues to spend funds on its
premarket  approval  applications  ("PMAAs")  for its  saline  breast  implants,
silicone  gel filled  breast  implants,  and  penile  implants.  The  Company is
committed to a variety of clinical and  laboratory  studies in  connection  with
these products.

The  Company  expects to spend the same amount of money on these PMAAs in fiscal
1996 as it did in fiscal 1995.  In addition,  the Company is beginning  clinical
studies on several new products,  specifically its Urethrin product for treating
urinary  incontinence.  Thus the  Company  expects to spend  more in  research &
development as a percent of sales in fiscal 1996 than it did in fiscal 1995.

Interest and Other Income and Expense

Interest expense  decreased $394 thousand in the quarter over the prior year. At
June 30,  1994,  the  Company  had short term  borrowings  of  approximately  $5
million,  while at both March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, there were no balances
outstanding.  In addition,  the Company  called for the  redemption of its 63/4%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures during the quarter. As of June 30, 1995, the
debentures  had been either  converted  into Common Stock or redeemed.  Interest
income decreased from $110 thousand last year to $72 thousand this year.

Included in interest  expense last year was $250  thousand for the quarter ($1.0
million for the fiscal year) in imputed  interest on the  Litigation  Settlement
Obligation.  In fiscal  1996,  this amount  decreased  to $175  thousand for the
quarter ($700 thousand for fiscal 1996).

Income Taxes

The effective rate of corporate income taxes was 34.8% for the quarter, compared
to 35.8% in the same period a year ago. The  acquisition of the IOL product line
included a  manufacturing  facility in Puerto Rico,  which under current  United
States tax laws receives Section 936 tax incentives.

Net Income

Net earnings per primary share increased to $.45 for the three months ended June
30,  1995,  compared  to $.34 last year,  due to the  increased  sales and lower
operating expenses ratios.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 1995, the Company's  working capital was $ 58.8 million  compared to
$53.7  million at March 31,  1995.  The  Company's  working  capital  needs were
provided from operations.

The Company  generated $ 8.6  million of cash from  operations  during the three
months ended June 30, 1995,  compared to $ 3.6 million the  previous  year.  Net
income  increased  $1.8  million  compared to the prior year.  The net change in
current liabilities was an additional source of cash of $4.6 million compared to
last year.

The Company  anticipates  investing  approximately  $8 million in facilities and
capital  equipment in fiscal 1996. The majority of the  expenditures  will be to
complete the buildout of its manufacturing  facilities in Texas and Puerto Rico,
and for data processing equipment and software.

During  fiscal  1994,  the  Company  finalized  its  agreement  with the Federal
Multi-District  Plaintiffs  Steering  committee,  which settled all  outstanding
breast  implant  litigation  and  claims  against  the  Company.  The  agreement
established a settlement fund of $25.8 million,  to be funded by the Company and
its insurers.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to make
two more  payments of $5.3 million each in  September  1995 and 1996.  This will
complete the Company's obligations under the Agreement.

At the  Annual  Meeting of  Shareholders,  held  September,  1994,  the  Company
announced the resumption of a quarterly cash dividend of $.05 per share.  At the
indicated  rate of $.20 per year,  the  aggregate  annual  dividend  would equal
approximately $2.5 million.

During  the  first  quarter,  the  Company  called  for  the  redemption  of its
convertible subordinated debentures, with a Redemption Date of June 30, 1995. At
March 31, 1995, the outstanding  balance was $24.2 million. At the option of the
debenture  holder,  the  debentures  could be converted into Common Stock at the
conversion  price of $16.50.  Any  debentures not converted into Common Stock by
the  redemption  date  would be  purchased  by  Mentor at 100  percent  of their
principal amount, plus accrued interest.  As of June 30, all but $73 thousand of
the debentures had been converted into Common Stock. A total of 1,461,000 shares
were issued to debenture holders.

Interest  accrued on the  debentures  but not paid as a result of the conversion
($1.4 million as of June 30, 1995) was charged,  net of applicable tax benefits,
directly to shareholders' equity. There was no impact to the income statement.

In the first  quarter,  the Company  announced  that its Board of Directors  had
authorized the  repurchase of up to 250,000  shares of Common Stock.  The shares
purchased  and retired  under this program will be used to offset stock  options
previously  granted to  employees  of the Company  under  existing  stock option
plans.  During July, 1995,  after the end of the first quarter,  the Company had
repurchased 86,000 shares for consideration of $2.4 million.
<PAGE>

During the first quarter,  the Company executed a new secured $15 million credit
agreement  to  replace  its  existing  lines of  credit.  Borrowings  under  the
Agreement  will accrue  interest at the  prevailing  prime rate.  The  Agreement
includes certain covenants which, among others,  limit the dividends the Company
may pay and require maintenance of certain levels of tangible net worth and debt
service  ratios.  An annual  commitment  fee of .25% will be paid on the  unused
portion of the $15 million  credit line.  At June 30,  1995,  the Company had no
amounts outstanding under this line.

The Company's principal source of liquidity at June 30, 1995 consisted of $ 17.6
million in cash and marketable securities plus $15.0 million available under its
line of credit.
