There is no such thing as "layers" in EPS. This concept is just not present in PostScript. (It is there in PDF, though. The correct technical term in PDFs is "optional content group" {OCG}, it's only its popular name of an OCG that calls it "layer".)

(If you have an EPS with "layers", I'd be interested to analyse it. Maybe there is some different feature in there, that you mis-interpret as "layers"...)
