Small eye examination light- help!

(votes: 0)


Hello all!!

I am new on a Neuro unit and see the nurses there wearing small little rectangle shaped eye exam lights clipped to their uniforms. I have tried typing a search for this and came up with nothing.

What are these specifically called?? I do not want a 'doctor's' pen light as it is long and I do not have many pockets. THANKS!!! :heartbeat
Maybe they're supplied by the unit! At any rate, those that have them surely could tell you where they got them...

Comment:
Thanks. I do not have to return to work for a few days and wanted to go ahead and order it before I returned.....

Comment:
Perhaps ask in the Neuro section of allnurses.

Comment:
Wow I've never seen those! Whenever I have worked neuro we use the pen lights!

Comment:
from your description they sound like the little lights that attach to key rings. Be aware that too bright a light is uncomfortable to the patient. All you need is enough light to create a pupillary response. If you hold the light to the side of the eye globe on plane with the iris you might see defects in the iris and cornea.
