MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Optical Sensors Incorporated (the Company) is a development stage enterprise.
Since its inception in 1989, the Company has been engaged in the design,
development, pre-commercial manufacturing and testing of point-of-care arterial
blood gas (ABG) monitoring systems. In late 1993, in conjunction with Marquette
Electronics, Inc. (MEI), the Company began developing a prototype, solid-state,
modular system that would plug into MEI's commercially available bedside
monitor. MEI began developing this module, designated "OnlineABG Module", while
the Company began developing a disposable sensor assembly, designated the
"SensiCath Sensor". The module and the sensor together comprise the "SensiCath
System". In early 1994, the Company began developing the current version of the
SensiCath System, based on a module that would use one of four slots in
Marquette's bedside monitor. The Company completed product development
activities in June 1995 and received 510(k) clearance to market the SensiCath
System from the FDA in January 1996. In April 1996, MEI completed development of
the ABG Module and released the module from its research and development
department to manufacturing for commercial production and sale. Both the
OnlineABG Module and the Sensicath Sensor are now available for commercial sale.

In September 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with MEI which gave the
Company control and sole ownership of all the technology incorporated in the
SensiCath System, subject to certain rights retained by MEI to use the
technology that it developed in non-competing products it manufactures.  The
Company was required to pay MEI a total of up to $2,000,000, of which $500,000
was paid in 1995.  An additional $500,000 is payable upon completion of
documenting manufacturing integration and transfer of the technology developed
by MEI to the Company. This documentation and transfer is expected to occur in
the second quarter of 1996.  The balance of $1,000,000 is payable in two
installments of $500,000 each conditioned upon MEI selling certain minimum
quantities of OnlineABG Modules.  In addition, the Company paid MEI $300,000 for
engineering support, $250,000 in 1995 and $50,000 in January 1996. All payments
made or to be made under this agreement have or will be recorded as research and
development expenses.

Since inception, the Company has experienced significant operating losses, and,
as of March 31, 1996, had an accumulated deficit of $27.9 million.  To date, the
Company has had only nominal revenues.  The Company expects MEI to begin
receiving orders for the OnlineABG Module in May 1996, which the Company expects
to lead to sales of the SensiCath Sensor.  The Company plans to exhibit the 
SensiCath System at a number of medical conferences in the next few months, at
which abstracts are expected to be presented and subsequent journal articles are
expected to be published.  The Company anticipates that its operating losses 
will continue for the foreseeable future because it plans to expend substantial
resources in funding sales and marketing activities, commercial manufacturing
and research and development.  The Company expects that research and development
expenses will remain at relatively high levels for the foreseeable future due to
scheduled payments of $1,500,000 to MEI, which are expected to be made in 1996,
planned development of new products and alternative cost saving configurations
of its existing product.  The foregoing forward looking statements could be
affected by certain risks and uncertainties, including: market acceptance of the
SensiCath System; the ability of the Company and MEI to effectively ramp-up

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
commercial production of the SensiCath Sensor and the OnlineABG Module,
respectively; successful development and introduction of new configurations of
the SensiCath System or other products; actions relating to regulatory matters
and health care cost reimbursement; and results of additional clinical marketing
studies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company had no sales in 1995, and net sales in the first quarter of 1996
consisted primarily of  demonstration units of the SensiCath Sensor sold to MEI.
The demonstration units were for use by MEI in promotion of its OnlineABG
Module.

Costs of products sold in the first quarter of 1996 consisted of costs related
to the establishment of commercial manufacturing  operations.  Beginning in the
first quarter of 1996, a significant portion of expenses related to establishing
commercial manufacturing that had been recorded as research and development
expenses in prior periods because the Company had no sales, were recorded as
cost of sales.  A total of $233,640 of expenses incurred in the first quarter of
1995 which were recorded as research and development expenses would have been
recorded as cost of sales had the Company had sales in that period.

Research and development costs in the first quarter of 1996 increased $225,542
or 22% from the first quarter of 1995, after adjusting for reclassifications to
cost of products sold as described above.  The increase is attributable
primarily to development expenses incurred for the Company's planned stand-alone
ABG monitoring system.

Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 1996
increased $312,464 or 83% from the first quarter of  1995.  Approximately
$156,000 of the increase is attributable to amortization of deferred
compensation expense for options granted in 1995. The remaining increase is
attributable primarily to organizational expansion of sales and marketing,
product positioning and market research activities.

Interest income in the first quarter of 1996 increased $169,345 from the first
quarter of 1995, due to interest earned on the proceeds from the Company's
initial public offering, which was completed in the first quarter of 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In February 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering of 2,500,000
shares of common stock.  In March 1996, the underwriter exercised its
overallotment option to purchase an additional 375,000 shares of common stock.
The net proceeds to the Company from the public offering was approximately
$33,953,000.  The Company's common stock is quoted on NASDAQ under the symbol
"OPSI".

The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $37,789,989 and $5,394,721 at March
31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively.  The company incurred cash
expenditures of  $1,557,053 for operations  and $995  for equipment for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.

As of March 31, 1996, the Company did not have any commitments for material
capital equipment acquisitions, although the Company does anticipate making
capital equipment acquisitions of approximately $1.0 million in 1996, primarily
for commercial manufacturing of the Company's products.

With the proceeds of the initial public offering, the Company believes that
sufficient liquidity is available to satisfy its working capital needs at least
through 1997.
