CUSIP No. 296074305                                          Page 3 of 12 Pages



         This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D relates to the ownership by EOI
Corp. (the "Reporting Person"), a Pennsylvania corporation, of 964,615 shares
(the "Shares") of Common Stock, no par value, of Escalon Medical Corp. (the
"Issuer"), a California corporation.  The Reporting Person was formerly known
as Escalon Ophthalmics, Inc., and the Issuer was formerly known as Intelligent
Surgical Lasers, Inc.  In November 1997, the Issuer effected a one-for-four
reverse stock split (the "Reverse Split"), as a result of which each
shareholder became the holder of one share of the Issuer's Common Stock for
every four shares owned before the Reverse Split.  References in this Amendment
No. 2 to shares of Common Stock of the Issuer have been adjusted to reflect the
Reverse Split.

         On October 2, 1995, the Board of Directors of the Reporting Person
adopted a Plan of Reorganization, Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (the
"Plan of Liquidation") providing that:  (i) the Reporting Person would transfer
substantially all of its assets and certain of its liabilities to the Issuer in
exchange for shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Asset Acquisition"),
which occurred on February 12, 1996; (ii) after the closing of the Asset
Acquisition, the Reporting Person would continue in existence for the sole
purpose of winding up its affairs, and that it would not thereafter engage in
any business activities other than activities related to the implementation of
the Plan of Liquidation; (iii) the Reporting Person would take all necessary
action to settle and discharge, or otherwise provide for, all of its remaining
liabilities, primarily through the delivery of shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock received in the Asset Acquisition and/or through the sale of any or all
of such shares and the application of the proceeds of the sale of such shares
to the payment of the Reporting Person's remaining liabilities; (iv) upon the
settlement and discharge of, or other provision for, all of the Reporting
Person's liabilities, the Reporting Person would transfer all of its remaining
assets, including the transfer in kind of any Shares then owned by the
Reporting Person, to its shareholders in accordance with their respective
rights and interests (less any assets retained as reasonable provisions to meet
claims, including unasserted, contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities
or expenses, and specifically set aside for such purpose); and (v) the
Reporting Person would thereafter dissolve as a corporate entity.

         The Plan of Liquidation was approved by the Reporting Person's
shareholders on January 19, 1996.  Thereafter, on February 12, 1996, the
Reporting Person transferred substantially all of its assets and certain of its
liabilities to the Issuer in exchange for shares of the Issuer's Common Stock
in the Asset Acquisition.  The Reporting Person has not conducted any business
operations since the Asset Acquisition was consummated.

         In furtherance of the Plan of Liquidation and in order to permit the
Reporting Person to discharge its most significant remaining liability, in
January 1998, the Reporting Person commenced an offer (the "Exchange Offer") to
the holders of its 10% Convertible Subordinated Notes due October 31, 2000 (the
"Notes") to exchange shares of common stock of the Reporting Person for the
Notes.  The Exchange Offer was completed on April 13, 1998, and, pursuant to
the Exchange Offer, the Reporting Person transferred 7,997,696 shares of the
Reporting Person's Common Stock to the holders of the Notes in complete
cancellation and discharge thereof.

         On May 8, 1998, the Reporting Person settled two outstanding
liabilities by transferring to holders of those liabilities an aggregate of
139,870 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock in full payment and discharge
thereof.  The Reporting Person has currently outstanding liabilities in the
amount of approximately $97,600 for legal, accounting and other expenses
relating to the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the dissolution
of the Reporting Person, including expenses relating to the sale of Shares of
the Reporting Person.  The Reporting Person anticipates that it will incur
additional expenses of this nature.  The Reporting Person intends to complete
the Plan of Liquidation promptly by (i) either transferring a portion of the
Shares to its creditors and/or selling a portion of the Shares in market
transactions to raise sufficient cash to satisfy its remaining liabilities and
(ii) upon the discharge of its remaining liabilities, distributing any
remaining Shares to its shareholders in final liquidation of its assets.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Item 4 is supplemented and restated in its entirety as follows:
<PAGE>   6
CUSIP No. 296074305                                          Page 6 of 12 Pages


TRANSACTIONS RELATED TO THE ASSET ACQUISITION

         The Reporting Person acquired 1,180,192 shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock in connection with the Asset Acquisition.  Concurrently with and as part
of the closing of the Asset Acquisition, the Reporting Person and Genentech,
Inc. ("Genentech") entered into a Termination and Settlement Agreement (the
"Settlement Agreement") dated as of February 12, 1996.  Pursuant to the
Settlement Agreement, the Reporting Person transferred and caused to be
delivered by the Issuer to Genentech 60,000 shares of the Common Stock of the
Issuer in consideration of (i) the termination by the Reporting Person and
Genentech of a license agreement between the two parties, (ii) the
extinguishment of all right, title and interest of Genentech in $1,737,260
aggregate principal amount of the Reporting Person's convertible notes and
warrants exercisable for the purchase of 227,500 shares of common stock of the
Reporting Person, (iii) the grant of registration rights by the Issuer to
Genentech and (iv) the mutual release by Genentech of the Reporting Person and
the Issuer, and the releases by the Reporting Person and the Issuer,
respectively, of Genentech, with respect to certain obligations relating to,
among other things, the Acquisition Agreement, the aforementioned license
agreement, the notes and warrant, and other matters occurring or existing on or
prior February 12, 1996.

         In addition, 530,096 Shares (the "Escrow Shares") were transferred to,
and are currently being held in, escrow (the "Escrow") pursuant to the terms of
the Escrow Agreement (the "Escrow Agreement") among the Issuer, the Reporting
Person and PNC Bank, National Association, as Escrow Agent, in order to assure
the Issuer that the Reporting Person will have assets available to satisfy
certain liabilities of the Reporting Person that were not being assumed by the
Issuer in the Asset Acquisition.  These liabilities have now been satisfied,
and the Escrow Shares have been released from the Escrow.

         Also, in connection with the Asset Acquisition, the Reporting Person
adopted the Plan of Liquidation.  The Plan of Liquidation provides that (i)
upon the closing of the Asset Acquisition, the Reporting Person would continue
in existence for the sole purpose of winding up its affairs, and that it would
not thereafter engage in any business activities other than activities related
to the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation, (ii) the Reporting Person
would take all necessary action to settle and discharge, or otherwise provide
for, all of its remaining liabilities either through the delivery of Shares
and/or pursuant to the sale of any or all of such Shares and the application of
the proceeds of the sale of such Shares to the payment of the Reporting
Person's remaining liabilities, (iii) upon the settlement and discharge of, or
other provision for, all of the Reporting Person's liabilities, the Reporting
Person would transfer all of its remaining assets, including the transfer in
kind of any Shares then owned by the Reporting Person, to its shareholders in
accordance with their respective rights and interests (less any assets retained
as reasonable provisions to meet claims, including unasserted, contingent,
conditional or unmatured liabilities or expenses, and specifically set aside
for such purpose) and (iv) the Reporting Person would thereafter dissolve as a
corporate entity.

         Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of February 12,
1996 between the Issuer and the Reporting Person (the "Registration Rights
Agreement"), the Reporting Person has also been granted certain demand and
piggyback registration rights.  See "Subsequent
<PAGE>   7
CUSIP No. 296074305                                          Page 7 of 12 Pages


Developments" below for a description of certain registrations effected under
and modifications made to the Registration Rights Agreement

         Upon the consummation of the Asset Acquisition, and as contemplated by
the Acquisition Agreement, three directors of the Issuer, Dieter Broska, Heinz
R. Gisel and Ann H. Lamont, resigned from the Board of Directors of the Issuer,
and four persons who were directors of the Reporting Person, Jay L. Federman,
Richard DePiano, Jack M. Dodick and Sterling C. Johnson, were elected to serve
as directors of the Issuer.  Following the consummation of the Asset
Acquisition, the Issuer's Board of Directors consisted of Robert J. Kunze,
Anthony B. Evnin, Jay L. Federman, Richard J. DePiano, Jack M. Dodick and
Sterling C. Johnson.  Mr. Kunze, Dr.  Federman, Dr. Dodick and Mr. DePiano are
the current directors of the Issuer, and Mr. DePiano is the Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer.  Dr. Federman, Dr. Dodick and
Mr. DePiano are also currently directors of the Reporting Person.  There is no
continuing obligation under any contractual arrangements to cause such persons
to be nominated or elected as directors of the Issuer.  The Reporting Person is
entitled to cumulate its votes in the election of directors under the
provisions of the California General Corporation Law.  Inasmuch as the
Reporting Person owns approximately 34.9% of the outstanding shares of the
Issuer, such cumulative voting rights will permit the Reporting Person to elect
a certain number of nominees as directors of the Issuer.  Also, its percentage
of ownership will permit the Reporting Person to cast a significant number of
votes with respect to other matters presented to the Issuer's shareholders for
their consideration and vote.

         As reported above, three directors of the Reporting Person are also
directors of the Issuer, and one of the officers of the Reporting Person is an
officer of the Issuer.  Such persons may take actions from time to time in
their respective capacities as officers and directors of the Issuer relating to
the management and control of the Issuer that differ from the current
intentions of the Reporting Person acting in its capacity as a shareholder of
the Issuer.

SUBSEQUENT DEVELOPMENTS

         The Shares are the Reporting Person's only significant asset and are
the sole source of payment of its liabilities.

         The Reporting Person currently has outstanding liabilities in the
amount of approximately $97,600 for legal, accounting and other expenses
relating to the implementation of the Plan of Liquidation and the dissolution
of the Reporting Person, including expenses relating to the sale of Shares by
the Reporting Person.  The Reporting Person anticipates that it will incur
additional expenses of this nature prior to the completion of its liquidation
and dissolution.

         COMPLETION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER

         On April 13, 1998, the Reporting Person completed the Exchange Offer,
pursuant to which the holders of the Notes received 2.566 shares of Common
Stock of the Reporting Person in exchange for each $1.00 in principal amount of
the Notes.  As of that date, $3,116,810 in principal amount of Notes were
outstanding.  A total of 7,997,696 shares of the Reporting Person's
<PAGE>   8
CUSIP No. 296074305                                          Page 8 of 12 Pages


Common Stock were transferred by the Reporting Person to the holders of the
Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer in complete cancellation and discharge of
the Notes.

         THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT AND PROPOSED
         TRANSFERS AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE REMAINING SHARES

         In August 1996, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the
Issuer registered under the Securities Act of 1933 the offer and sale of up to
100,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, 60,000 shares of which represented
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock acquired by Genentech in February 1996 and
40,000 shares owned by the Reporting Person so as to register for transfer to
permit the Reporting Person to discharge of certain of its liabilities.  In
August 1996, the Reporting Person transferred 10,787 shares of the Issuer's
Common Stock to a creditor of the Reporting Person in discharge of certain
liabilities of the Reporting Person at the rate of $5.5624 per share.  After
such transfer, 29,213 Shares remained available for transfer sale or under that
registration statement.

         In December 1997, the Reporting Person agreed with the Issuer not to
exercise its demand registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement
through February 15, 1998, but the Reporting Person retained its piggyback
registration rights.  Pursuant to the exercise of Reporting Person's piggyback
registration rights, the Issuer has registered 1,080,192 Shares in a
registration statement under the Securities Act, which became effective on May
1, 1998.

         The Reporting Person proposes to complete its liquidation promptly by
(i) either transferring a portion of the Shares to its creditors and/or selling
a portion of the Shares in market transactions to raise sufficient cash to pay
its remaining liabilities and the expenses of liquidation and (ii) upon the
discharge of all remaining liabilities and the payment of the expenses of
liquidation, distributing to the holders of the Reporting Person's Common Stock
the Shares that the Reporting Person continues to hold in final liquidation of
its assets.

OTHER INFORMATION UNDER THIS ITEM 4

         (a)     As described in Item 3 and Item 4 of this Schedule 13D, the
Reporting Person acquired the Shares of the Issuer's Common Stock upon the

other agreements related thereto.

         (b)     The Reporting Person has adopted the Plan of Liquidation.  See

         (c)     Upon the closing of the Asset Acquisition on February 12,

the Issuer, pursuant to which the Reporting Person is entitled to three demand
and unlimited piggyback registration rights.  The Reporting Person is
responsible for all fees and expenses associated with the demand registration
rights.  As disclosed in Item 4 above, in August 1996, pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer registered under the Securities Act
of 1933 the offer and sale of up to 100,000 shares of the Issuer's Common

acquired by Genentech in February 1996 and 40,000 Shares of which were
available for sale or transfer by the Reporting Person in discharge of certain
of its liabilities.  In December 1997, the Reporting Person agreed not to
exercise its demand registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement
through February 15, 1998, but retained its piggyback registration rights.

shareholders in final liquidation of its assets.
