Eye Speculum

Description

Eye Speculum

This 15cm eye speculum is a plain, general pattern for holding the lids open. It does one job well: it keeps the field clear while you work. Choose it when you need a simple, dependable lid holder rather than a named design.

A general-purpose lid holder

Not every case needs a special speculum. For routine procedures, a basic pattern gives steady exposure with fewer choices to make. Also, staff learn it quickly, so setup moves fast.

About the 15 cm listing

The listed size is 15 cm, which places it at the large end of our specula. Because frame forms vary, look at the product photo to judge the arm shape and spread. If you need a smaller tool, our 3 to 8 cm designs may suit better.

First checks on a new lid speculum

When the speculum arrives:

• Open and close it to test the action
• Look for sharp edges on the arms
• Make sure both arms sit level

Plain pattern, many settings

A general speculum fits clinics, day units and teaching labs alike. So it often becomes the spare that fills a gap on any tray. In addition, its simple action makes it easy to inspect.

Cleaning joints and arms

Lid specula touch tears, oils and sometimes blood. So rinse yours soon after use, and clean any joint or spring with a soft brush. Then dry it well, because water left in a joint can mark the steel.

Ordering this eye speculum

The 15cm eye speculum travels unsterile, so clean and sterilize this plain frame first; then it can serve on many routine lists. Its general-pattern steel meets ASTM F899.
