                        PARADIGM MEDICAL INDUSTRIES, INC.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)
                                   -----------


         1.       Significant Accounting Policies:
                  --------------------------------

         In the opinion of management,  the  accompanying  financial  statements
         contain all adjustments  (consisting  only of normal  recurring  items)
         necessary to present fairly the financial  position of Paradigm Medical
         Industries,  Inc. ("the  Company") as of March 31, 1999 and the results
         of its operations for the three months ended March,  1998 and 1999, and
         its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999.  The
         results of operations  for the periods  presented  are not  necessarily
         indicative of the results to be expected for the full year period.

         Net Loss Per Share
         ------------------ 

         Net loss per common share is computed on the weighted average number of
         common and common  equivalent  shares  outstanding  during each period.
         Common stock equivalents consist of convertible preferred stock, common
         stock options and warrants.  Common equivalent shares are excluded from
         the computation when their effect is anti-dilutive.  Other common stock
         equivalents  have not been  included  in loss  years  because  they are
         anti-dilutive.

         2.       Legal Proceedings:
                  ------------------

         The company is not a party to any legal proceedings.

         3.       Preferred Stock Conversions:
                  ----------------------------

         Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, holders of the Company's
         Class A and Class B  Preferred  Stock  have the right to  convert  such
         stock  into  shares of the  Company's  common  stock at the rate of 1.2
         shares of common  stock for each share of preferred  stock.  During the
         three month  period  ended  March 31,  1999  26,542  shares of Series A
         Preferred  Stock and no Series B Preferred  Stock were  converted  into
         31,851 shares of common stock.

         In January  1998,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  authorized  the
         issuance of a total of 30,000 shares of  non-voting  Series C Preferred
         Stock,  $.001 par value,  $100 stated value.  Each share is convertible
         into  approximately   57.14  shares  of  common  stock  at  an  initial
         conversion  price,  subject  to  adjustments  for stock  splits,  stock
         dividends and certain  combinations or  recapitalizations of the Common
         stock, equal to $1.75 per share of common stock.  Holders of the shares
         of  Series  C  Preferred  stock  are  entitled  to  12%  non-cumulative
         dividends.  However, the shares shall be entitled to dividends declared
         on the Company's common stock on an as-converted basis.

         In March  1998,  the  Company  closed a private  placement  of Series C
         Preferred  Stock,  selling  20,030 shares at a price of $100 per share.
         The net  proceeds  to the  Company  from  the  private  placement  were
         approximately $1.7 million.

         In January  1998,  the  Company  offered  to the  holders of the Notes,
         through an exchange offer, the right to exchange their Notes for shares
         of Series C Preferred  Stock.  In March 1998,  Notes totaling  $995,000
         were  exchanged for 9,950 shares of Series C Preferred  Stock,  at $100
         per share, totaling $995,000. The exchange offer has now expired.

         In September 1998, the Company filed a registration  statement with the
         Securities  and Exchange  Commission on Form SB-2 under the  Securities
         Act of 1933,  registering  for resale the common shares  underlying the
         Series C Preferred Stock issue.

                                        7

<PAGE>



         During the three months ended March 31, 1999,  5,500 shares of Series C
         Preferred  Stock were  converted  into 314,270  shares of the Company's
         Common Stock.

         In January  1999,  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  authorized  the
         issuance  of a  total  of  1,140,000  shares  of  non-voting  Series  D
         Preferred Stock,  $.001 par value per share,  $1.75 stated value.  Each
         share  initially is  convertible  into one share of Common Stock.  Each
         share  which  remains   outstanding  on  January  1,  2002,   shall  be
         automatically  converted into one share of Common Stock. Holders of the
         shares of Series D Preferred  Stock are entitled to 10%  non-cumulative
         dividends.

         In March  1999,  the  Company  closed a private  placement  of Series D
         Preferred  Stock,  selling  1,140,000  shares  at a price of $1.75  per
         share. The net proceeds to the Company from the private  placement were
         approximately $1.6 million.

         5.       Warrants:
                  ---------

         In connection with the private  placement of Series C Preferred  Stock,
         the Company issued to Win Capital a warrant to purchase  100,000 shares
         of the Company's  common stock at a price of $3.00 per share,  expiring
         March,  2001. The Company has recorded the fair value of the warrant at
         $336,000, which is being recognized as a cost of raising the capital in
         the private placement.

         In March 1999,  in  connection  with the private  placement of Series D
         Preferred Stock, the Company issued to KSH Investment Group warrants to
         purchase  208,000  shares Common Stock at an average price of $2.41 per
         share, expiring February,  2004. The Company recorded the fair value of
         the warrant at $361,580, which is being recognized as a cost of raising
         the  capital in the  private  placement.  Also in  connection  with the
         private placement,  the Company issued 105,000 warrants to CynDel & Co.
         and 35,000  warrants to Win  Capital  Corp.,  exercisable  at $2.30 per
         share, expiring January,  2004. The Company has recorded the fair value
         of these warrants at $229,600,  which is being  recognized as a cost of
         raising the capital in the private placement.

         In March,  1999,  the  Company  issued a warrant  to an  officer of the
         Company to purchase  120,000 shares of the Company's  Common Stock at a
         price of $2.68 per share,  expiring March, 2004, in connection with his
         retirement agreement.

         6.       Related  Party Transactions:
                  ----------------------------

         A law  firm of  which a  director  of the  Company  is a  partner,  has
         rendered legal  services to the Company.  During the three months ended
         March 31, 1999, the Company paid this firm $59,765 for legal  services,
         and, as of March 31, 1999, had no balance outstanding.

         The Company has  subcontracted  the  manufacturing  of its Precisionist
         ThirtyThousand(TM)  and  Photon(TM)  laser  cataract  systems  to a
         company  that is a  shareholder.  During the three month  period  ended
         March 31, 1999, the Company purchased design and manufacturing services
         from that  company  of $9,900,  and,  as of March 31,  1999,  owed that
         company $106,878, which is included in accounts payable.

         A director  of the Company is a former  director  of Win Capital  Corp.
         ("Win  Capital").   In  August,  1997,  the  Company  entered  into  an
         investment banking agreement with Win Capital Corp. (Win Capital) for a
         two-year  period  that may be  extended  for an  additional  year.  The
         Company  pays a  retainer  to Win  Capital  of $2,000 per month for the
         first six  months,  $4,000  per month for the second  six  months,  and
         $6,000 per month for the  remainder of the  contract.  The Company also
         issued a warrant to Win  Capital to  purchase  up to 191,000  shares of
         common  stock at a  purchase  price of $3.00  per  share.  The  warrant
         expires on August 19, 2000. On February 12, 1999, Win Capital agreed to
         accept 24,200 shares Common Stock at $2.50 per share for the balance of
         the contract.  A new consulting  agreement replaced the prior agreement
         which provides for twelve months payments at $6,000 per month.

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


General


The following  Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
results of Operations  contains  forward looking  statements which involve risks
and  uncertainties.  The Company's  actual results could differ  materially from
those  anticipated  in these forward  looking  statements as a result of certain
factors discussed in this section. The Company's fiscal year runs from January 1
to and including December 31.

We are  engaged  in the  design,  development,  manufacture  and  sale  of  high
technology  eye care  products.  Our  surgical  equipment is designed to perform
minimally  invasive  cataract  surgery and is comprised of surgical  devices and
related  instruments  and  accessories,   including  disposable  products.   Our
ultrasound diagnostic products include a pachymeter,  an A-Scan, an A/B Scan and
a  biomicroscope,  the technology for which we acquired from Humphrey Systems in
1998. In addition,  we market our Blood Flow Analyzer(TM).  Our activities for
the twelve months ended December 31, 1998,  included  domestic and international
sales of the Precisionist  ThirtyThousand(TM) Ocular Surgery Workstation(TM)
cataract surgery systems,  the Blood Flow  Analyzer(TM),  the Humphrey Systems
Ultrasound   diagnostic   equipment,   and  research  and   development  on  the
Photon(TM)  laser  cataract  removal  system,  which received FDA approval for
expansion to Phase II Clinical Trials on May 19, 1998.

We  commenced  delivery of the  Pachymetric  Analyzer,  which  measures  corneal
thickness, in December 1998, and the Ultrasound A-Scan, which measures the axial
length of the eye, in March 1999. We expect to begin shipments of the Ultrasound
A/B Scan, which is used by retinal specialists to identify foreign bodies in the
posterior  chamber of the eye and in evaluating the structural  integrity of the
retina,  in the second  quarter of 1999.  We should  commence  shipments  of the
Ultrasonic Biomicroscope ("UBM"), which creates a high-resolution computer image
of the unseen parts of the eye providing a map for the glaucoma surgeon,  in the
third  quarter of 1999.  In  summary,  we expect all four  instruments  to be in
production in the third quarter of 1999.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998

Sales  decreased  by  $249,172,  or 71%, to $102,210  for the three months ended
March 31, 1999,  from $351,382 for the comparable  period in 1998. This decrease
in sales was primarily due to a reallocation of resources to meet the ultrasound
diagnostic  production  demands and additional delays in the introduction of the
new  fluidic  system for the  Precisionist  ThirtyThousand(TM)  Ocular  Surgery
Workstation(TM).  Net cost of sales decreased $146,343, or 75%, to $49,691 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999,  from $196,034 for the comparable  period
in 1998, roughly in line with the decrease in sales.

The gross  margin for the three  months  ended  March 31, 1999 of 51% was higher
than the gross margin of 44% for the comparable  period in 1998. The increase in
the gross margin in the first  quarter of 1999 over the first quarter of 1998 is
primarily  attributable to a higher  percentage of the sales mix attributable to
disposable products.  If the amortization of capitalized  engineering and design
charges,  a non-cash  expense,  is excluded for the three months ended March 31,
1999 and the same period in 1998, the gross margin was 70% compared with 49% for
the like period in 1998.

Marketing and selling expenses increased by $42,413, or 27%, to $200,575 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999,  from $158,162 for the  comparable  period in
1998.  The increase was a result of the Company  adding a national sales manager
and a restructuring of its sales force.


                                        9

<PAGE>



General and administrative  expenses increased $138,434, or 41%, to $472,502 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999,  from $334,068 for the comparable  period
in 1998.  The  increase  was  primarily  the  result of the 1) the return to the
contractual  compensation  level  for  officers  from  the  voluntary  reduction
experienced  in first quarter of last year, 2) higher  directors'  and officers'
compensation,  3) the necessity to add additional  space to support the new line
of diagnostic products and 4) higher investment banking fees.

Research and development expenses increased $42,842, or 68%, to $106,074 for the
three  months  ended March 31,  1999,  from $63,232 for the same period in 1998.
This increase was primarily the result of the addition of new personnel.

Other income  increased  $16,737,  or 123%, for the quarter ended March 31, 1999
compared  with the same period in 1998.  This was primarily due to the reduction
of interest  expense  associated  with the conversion of notes into  convertible
preferred stock.

Upgrades

To garner  sales,  we offer the  ultrasonic  Precisionist(TM)  system  with an
unconditional   arrangement   under  which  the   customer   may  trade  in  its
Precisionist(TM)  system to  upgrade  to a  Precisionist  ThirtyThousand(TM)
Ocular Surgery System(TM).  Under this arrangement, the customer receives full
credit for the trade-in purchase price of the Precisionist(TM)  system against
the  price  of  the  new   Precisionist   ThirtyThousand(TM)   Ocular  Surgery
System(TM).  As of  March  31,  1999,  we  had  distributed  approximately  51
Precisionist(TM)  systems  under  this  provision.  The gross  margin on these
original sales was approximately $295,000 or 32%. If all of these customers were
to exercise their upgrade priviledge,  we would exchange the  Precisionist(TM)
system for our new Precisionist ThirtyThousand(TM) Ocular Surgery System(TM)
and  refurbish  the  ultrasonic  Precisionist(TM)  system and sell them in the
international   market.   Any   losses   on  the   sale   of   the   refurbished
Precisionist(TM)  systems,  which are not  expected to be  significant,  would
reduce the gross margin on the Precisionist  ThirtyThousand(TM) Ocular Surgery
System(TM)  sales. The total gross margin on the upgrade sales is estimated to
be  $1,677,000,  or 41%.  During the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and March 31,
1998 there were no trade-in sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company used cash in operating  activities  of $607,101 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999,  compared to $787,047 for the three months ended March 31,
1998.  The modest  decrease of cash used by  operating  activities  in the first
quarter of 1999 is primarily attributable to the issuance of common stock valued
at $141,750 for compensation and services.  The Company used cash from investing
activities of $6,174 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, compared to cash
used from  investing  activities of $2,298 in the same quarter in 1998.  The net
cash provided by financing  activities for the three months ended March 31, 1999
was 1,746,000, compared with $1,768,000 for the similar period in 1998. In March
1998, the Company  completed the private  placement of 20,030 shares of Series C
Preferred  Stock at $100 per share  resulting in net proceeds of $1,746,640.  In
addition, the Company exchanged $995,000 of promissory notes for 9,950 shares of
Series C Preferred  Stock at $100 per share and  converted  a $75,000  note into
Common Stock.

In March 1999, we completed a private  placement of 1,140,000 shares of Series D
Convertible   Preferred   Stock  at  $1.75  per  share  with  the  net  proceeds
approximating  $1.6  million.  On a  pro-forma  basis to reflect  the March 1999
equity  financing as of December 31, 1998,  total  stockholders  equity would be
about $3.3 million with cash and cash equivalents of $1.7 million.  Based on our
1999 budget and the net proceeds  from the 1999  Preferred  Stock  offering,  we
believe that funds are sufficient to continue  operations  through  December 31,
1999.  However,  no assurances  can be given that our plan will be successful in
achieving positive cash flow or profitability.

We  will  seek  funding  to  meet  our  working  capital   requirements  through
collaborative arrangements and strategic alliances,  additional public offerings
and/or private placements of our securities or bank borrowings.  There can be no
assurance,  however, that additional funds, if required,  will be available from
any of these or other sources on favorable terms, if at all.

Our ratio of  inventory to sales for the three month period ended March 31, 1999
was 6.9,  compared with 1.9 for a simialr period in 1998.  With the launching of
two new products within the past eighteen months, we have had to build inventory
in  anticipation  of sales.  In addition,  delays in  receiving  the new fluidic
system  for  the  Precisionist  ThiryThousand   Workstation(TM)  have  limited
shipments of this product  from  inventory  and the  collection  of  outstanding
receivables.

At  March  31,  1999,  we  had  net  operating  loss  carryforwards   (NOLs)  of
approximately $10,200,000 and research and development tax credit carry forwards
of approximately  $34,000.  These  carryforwards  are available to offset future
taxable income, if any, and begin to expire in the year 2006. Our ability to use
NOLs to offset  future  income is  dependant  upon the tax laws in effect at the
time the NOLs can be utilized.  The tax Reform Act of 1996 significantly  limits
the annual amount that can be utilized for certain of these  carryforwards  as a
result of change of ownership.

Effect of Inflation and Foreign Currency Exchange

We have not realized a reduction in the selling price of the Precisionist  phaco
system as a result of domestic  inflation.  Nor have we experienced  unfavorable
profit  reductions due to currency  exchange  fluctuations or inflation with its
foreign customers.

Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements

In June  1998,  the  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement  establishes  accounting and
reporting standards for derivative  instruments and requires  recognition of all
derivatives as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial  position and
measurement of those  instruments at fair value.  The statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. We believe that the adoption of SFAS
133 will not have any material effect on our financial statements.

We have  reviewed all other  recently  issued  accounting  standards in order to
determine  their  effects,  if any, on the results of  operations  or  financial
position.  Based on that review,  we believe  that none of these  pronouncements
will have a significant effect on current or future earnings or operations.

Year 2000

The year 2000 issue is the result of computer  programs  being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Management of the Company
does not  anticipate  that any  significant  modification  or replacement of the
Company's  software  will be  necessary  for its  computer  systems to  properly
utilize  dates  beyond  December  31,  1999  or  that  the  Company  will  incur
significant  operating  expenses to make any such computer system  improvements.
The Company is not able to  determine,  however,  whether any of its  suppliers,
lenders, or service providers will need to make any such software  modifications
or  replacements or whether the failure to make such software  corrections  will
have an effect on the Company's operations or financial condition.

Part II: Other Information

Item 5.  Other Information

On June 26, 1998,  the Company  entered into a  Co-Distribution  Agreement  (the
"Co-Distribution  Agreement")  with  Pharmacia & Upjohn  Company  ("Pharmacia  &
Upjohn")   and  National   Healthcare   Manufacturing   Corporation   ("National
Healthcare")  which provides for the marketing and sale of a range of ophthalmic
products.  Under  the  terms  of the  Co-Distribution  Agreement,  the  Company,
Pharmacia & Upjohn, and National Healthcare,  will offer a comprehensive package
of  products  to  cataract  surgeons,  including  cataract  surgical  equipment,
intraocular lens implants, intraocular pharmaceuticals, surgical instruments and
sterile  procedural  packs.  The Company  will provide the  Precisionist  Thirty
Thousand(TM)  for distribution and sale under the  Co-Distribution  Agreement.
The Pharmacia & Upjohn products to be distributed as part of the Co-Distribution
Agreement  include the Healon(R) and Healongv(R)  viscoelastic  solution and the
CeeOn line of foldable, small intraocular lens implants, designed to replace the
natural lens removed during cataract surgery.

On July 23, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale of
Assets (the  "Agreement") with the Humphrey Systems Division of Carl Zeiss, Inc.
("Humphrey  Systems")  to acquire  the  ownership  and  manufacturing  rights to
certain assets of Humphrey  Systems that are diagnostic  instruments,  including
the Ultrasonic Biometer Model 820, the A/B Scan System Model 837, the Ultrasound
Pachymeter  Model 855,  and the  Ultrasound  Biomicroscope  Model  840,  and all
accessories,  packaging,  and  end-user  collateral  materials  for  each of the
product  lines for the sum of $500,000,  payable in the form of 78,947 shares of
Common Stock which were issued to Humphrey Systems,  and 26,316 shares of Common
Stock which were issued to Douglas Adams.  However, if the net proceeds received
by Humphrey Systems from the sale of the shares issued pursuant to the Agreement
is less than $375,000  (after payment of  commissions,  transfer taxes and other
expenses  relating to the sale of such shares),  then the Company is required to
issue  additional  shares of Common Stock,  or pay additional  funds to Humphrey
Systems as is necessary to increase Humphrey Systems' net proceeds from the sale
of the assets to $375,000.  Since Humphrey  Systems  realized only $162,818 from
the sale of 78,947 shares of Paradigm's  common  stock,  Paradigm  issued 80,000
additional  shares in January  1999, to enable  Humphrey  Systems to receive its
guaranteed amount.

The rights to the  ophthalmic  diagnostic  instruments  that have been purchased
from Humphrey Systems under the Agreement complement both the Company's cataract
surgical  equipment  and its ocular  Blood Flow  Analyze(TM).  The  Ultrasonic
Biometer  calculates the  prescription  for the intraocular lens to be implanted
during cataract surgery.  The Ultrasound  Pachymeter  measures corneal thickness
for the new  refractive  surgical  applications  that  eliminate  the  need  for
eyeglasses and for the optometric  applications including contact lense fitting.
The A/B Scan System combines the Ultrasonic  Biometer and ultrasound imaging for
advanced diagnostic testing throughout the eye, and is a viable tool for retinal
specialists.   The  Ultrasound   Biomicroscope   utilizes   microscopic  digital
ultrasound resolution for detection of tumors and improved glaucoma management.
