If you are talking about the design, it's basically the same, left and right. But, if you put an EG shock on a DC fork(no sure about DA forks), the EG shock O.D. is about 2mm bigger than the DC fork I.D.

Incorrect, 92-95 Civic and 94-01 Integras use the exact same part number for the front shock forks.

DA forks are different, but I do not know what the exact difference is.

We are referring to where the shock fits, the shape of it is the same, but where the shock fit is different in I.D. Why don't you try fitting a DC fork with an EG shock. Here's the pic measurement of a DC fork, imma take my EG fork out this weekend and I'll measure it and you'll see the difference by those two. The DC shock is smaller in O.D., but if you fit that shock on an EG fork, there's some clearance involve, even though you tighten the 14mm locking bolt. Do your "field research", homeboy!!!

I have never had a 92-95 Civic so I can't very well do "field research". I'm just going by the factory Honda part numbers, which are the same for both 92-95 Civic and 94-01 Integra shock forks. I can't really see how different parts could be sold with the same part number.
