How to use an Otoscope and why you need one

An otoscope is a tool that will allow you to look into the ear and eardrums with the help of light and a lens, which will allow you to see more clearly and brighter. A lot of people use otoscope these days, health should be our top priority and everyone should have one otoscope at their home, especially if you have kids or older people.

Why do you need an otoscope at home?

Even though an otoscope is a safe tool, we would not recommend kids use it by themselves, but adults should always keep one at home, if something is stuck or hurts, you can check first before panic. Not just for kids, as an adult health is very important and keeping an eye will always help you to be one step ahead.

How do we use them?

  • Remember, always use both hands, one to hold the ear and one to hold the otoscope.
  • Keep in mind that the ear canal is not straight, so you need to make a couple of moves before finding the right spot.
  • Make sure to use the right batteries and the bulb.
  • If you have done all this then, it is so easy to do the examination, just turn on the light and there you go.

Our wide range of otoscope and specula collections will give you a lot of choices so that you can find the best. One year guarantee with the possibility of replacing bulbs and specula will give you a longer run.
