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

Net Sales:
     Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the
same period in 1998 decreased by $919,005.  Management attributes this
principally to decreased sales of the Company's fiber optic dental video
components due to downsizing and acquisitions among the Company's customers
that resulted in a temporary delay in orders from these customers.



Cost of Sales:
     Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was 61%,
compared to 60% for the same period in 1998. Management attributes this to
fixed manufacturing overhead being absorbed by lower sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 decreased to $618,650 from $652,665 for the same period in
1998.  Included in the 1999 expenses are costs in the amount of $51,262 that
are directly attributable to a 1999 private placement. Excluding the private
placement costs, the selling, general and administrative expenses would have
been $567,388.  Management attributes this decrease to a broad reduction in
expenses required to administer the decreased sales.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs having been written
using two digits, rather then four, to define the applicable year. Software
programs and hardware that have date-sensitive software or embedded chips may
recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.  This
could result in a major system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions
of operations, including a temporary inability to engage in normal business
activities.

Based on recent assessments, the Company has determined that its critical
software (primarily widely-used software packages) and all of its critical
business systems, including manufacturing instrumentation, are already year
2000 compliant and no material expenditures are required.  Nevertheless,
throughout 1999, assessment, testing and remediation, if necessary, will
continue.

The Company has initiated communications with third parties with whom the
Company has material business relationships to determine the extent of their
remediation of the year 2000 issue.  However, there can be no guarantee that
the non-compliance of other companies will not have an adverse effect on the
Company's operations.

Although no assurance can be given that there will be no interruption of
operations in the year 2000, the Company believes that it has reasonably
assessed all of its systems in order to ensure that the Company will not suffer
any material adverse effect from the year 2000 issue.
