Levinson Foreign Body Instrument
The Levinson foreign body instrument rounds out the named patterns in our particle range. Its task is to free a speck stuck to the cornea when rinsing fails. Like its siblings, it works best with a braced hand and a shallow angle.
Why the Angle Matters
The cornea is thin, so depth control is everything. A shallow angle keeps the tip skimming the surface. By contrast, a steep angle risks going deeper than you mean to. For this reason, always approach from the side.
A Quick Pre-Use Check
- Look at the tip under a loupe before each case.
- Make sure the handle has no rough spots.
- Confirm the tool has been through a full sterilization cycle.
- Have a second tool ready in case you need another shape.
Levinson or Another Pattern?
No options exist on this page. So base your choice on tip form and feel. The photos show the end clearly. If you already like Dix or Davis, compare them side by side before you switch.
Cleaning Routine
Debris dries fast on a small tip. Therefore, rinse it within minutes of use. Next, soak and brush it, then rinse and dry. Store it with a guard so the end stays sharp and straight.
Safety Habits That Last
Good habits protect both patient and clinician. Never pass a fine tool point first. Instead, set it down on the tray for the next person. Likewise, cap it during transport so nobody gets a needlestick from the tip.
