Perhaps, you could work with typeset expressions directly in
Mathematica.  They should then convert naturally to LaTeX.
For example:

In[1]:= TeXForm[Subscript[\[Epsilon], 1]]
Out[1]//TeXForm= \epsilon _1

Of course, you needn't type the whole Subscript[\[Epsilon], 1]
thing in verbatim; there are shortcuts that you get used to.
The new V7 palettes are very helpful in this regard.
