NEVER WORRY ABOUT A
BURNED OUT BULB AGAIN WITH THIS AMAZING OTOSCOPE!
4X Magnification plus
LED
Light Source
An Incredible Value in an Otoscope. It makes use of the Light Emitting Diode (LED) as it's light source for a superior view inside the ear. There is no otoscope on the market today that can compare at this price!
Why LED? The energy efficiency and durability of this otoscope is simply amazing. The LED light source has
no filament to break like a conventional incandescent powered otoscope.
The otoscope light source is virtually indestructible and comes with a lifetime warranty that even includes replacing the entire otoscope if the LED bulb ever burns out or stops functioning. You will be absolutely amazed by the amount of light created by the LED bulb. The light produced by this otoscope is full spectrum and not the yellow light typically created by incandescent light bulbs on other otoscopes. With a light emitting diode there is no fragile filament to break so it can withstand repeated dropping or rough handling. The halogen bulbs found on other otoscopes burn very hot and eat battery power, they are also very fragile and easily damaged.
The Dr. Mom Slimline LED Otoscope provides one
incredible value for the price! The otoscope was
engineered to specifications created by a
pediatrician and a long-experienced emergency room
physician. This premium quality
medical instrument employs a light emitting diode (LED)
as its light source, for superior light and an
extraordinarily clear view of the ear canal and eardrum.
There is simply no
otoscope on the market that can compare to it, that will
perform like it, for anything like the price of the Dr.
Mom Slimline LED Otoscope!
We offer a 60 day money back guarantee and a lifetime warranty that even covers the
light source. Please try this otoscope. You have nothing to lose. Just imagine how good it will feel to catch your child's ear infection in it's earliest stages and avoid the 2 AM trip to the emergency room with a child suffering the agonizing pain of a full blown ear infection. This otoscope was designed with just this purpose in mind and from the feedback we have received we can tell you it does it's job very well.

Essential equipment for parents,
January 8, 2008
We have three young children and one of them is prone to ear
infections. The symptoms are sneaky and running to the
doctor every time we suspect an infection just isn't
practical. For a few years, we had a cheapo drugstore
otoscope. It was cheap to begin with and never worked all
that well. However, it did help us diagnose a few ear
infections.
The Dr. Mom Otoscope is a HUGE leap forward. It is very
bright and very clear. My only regret is that we didn't find
this and buy it earlier!
I give this my highest recommendation. |
Impressive otoscope for the price,
November 16, 2007
I was almost shocked at how well I could see my wifes eardrum
with this nifty little tool. I could even see the little boney
thing laying on the inside of the eardrum that I remeber
studying in Biology 10 years ago in college. The light was
exceptionally bright, actually it was an almost blinding light
when I took off the cone and looked directly into it. It is also
nice to know the bulb will last forever. My sister bought an ear
scope from Walgreens to use to check her childrens ears and it
went out after about 2 months and she could not find anywhere to
buy a new bulb. She had to just dispose of it. She is the one
that found this model and told me about it. I am very happy with
my purchase.
I also want to add that I could not see my daughters eardrum as
clearly as my wifes but it was more of a problem with the fact
her ear canals seemed fairly small and she seemed have have alot
more earwax blocking my view.

BEST OTOSCOPE EVER!,
September 6, 2007
This product arrived promptly and is so much better
than I had anticipated. I used to have a big heavy
one that was quite expensive and heavy as well. It
stopped working; I didn't know where to have it
repaired...then looking on the internet I saw this
Dr Mom instrument with the lifetime guarantee. We
have used it a lot and recommend it highly!

Dr Mom LED Pocket Otoscope,
March 19, 2007
I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend it
highly to anyone. I had bought a cheaper version at CVS
for $10 but it broke twice and I just gave up on it. I
went searching the web and came across this item with a
lifetime guarantee and was sold. Once I received it and
used it, i was even more impressed. The light is
fantastic and I was able to see into my toddlers ears
with no problems. If you have small kids that get a lot
of ear infections or a lot of wax build up, you need to
get this item.

Love this otoscope, February 5, 2007
I really like this otoscope. The light is exceptionaly bright
and the stuff you see in the ear is crystal clear. The
instruction sheet that came with the otoscope is also very good.
Amazing that the bulb will never wear out and is warrantied for
life if it ever does. The bulb on my welch allyn pocket otoscope
cost more than this entire otoscope and I am replacing it every
5 or 6 months.
Very nice product all the way around!

Better than many expensive versions,
January 20, 2008
This is a very good otoscope for the price. I am an
audiology student and otoscopy is something we do on
all patients. I liked the illumination of this
otoscope better than most of the $100 otoscopes I've
used. When looking in my mother's ear, the view was
so crisp and in focus I could see the veins on her
eardrum. One thing I don't like is how the speculum
attaches to the head of the otoscope. It does not
twist on like professional version, you have to push
it into the hollow, this took me forever to figure
out. You feel like you are breaking it and that the
speculum won't fit, but keep pushing it in until it
is fully secure.
For parents wanting to use this on their children, I
recommend that you ask your pediatrician or medical
professional to give you a training session. You can
hurt your child and make them afraid of otoscopy...which
will make diagnosing and treating their ear
infections very difficult for the medical
professional. The speculum of the otoscope should
never touch/scrape the inner ear canal wall. The
inner third of the ear canal (near the eardrum) is
composed of bone and is covered with a thin layer of
skin. This skin is easily abraded. The ear canal
protects itself by having many nerves in this area
to alert you to any actions occurring in this
region. Scraping the inner ear canal can be very
painful. If you are trying to look at the eardrum
and you can't see around the a bend in the ear
canal, do not use the speculum to press around the
bend. This is painful. Instead pull on the pinna
(what you call the ear). If it is an older child or
an adult, pull the pinna up, if is a younger child
pull the ear lobe down. This will straighten out the
ear canal as much as it can be straightened to help
you view the eardrum. Second, you need to stabilize
the hand holding the otoscope. If the child jerks,
you could hurt them with the speculum. With the hand
that is holding the otoscope, look in the ear while
the pinkie finger of that same hand is pressed
against the skull. Use your other hand that is not
holding the otoscope to pull on the pinna and
straighten the ear canal. If for some reason the
inner portion of the ear canal is abraded, seek
medical attention. Ear canals are dark and moist, a
great place for infection to develop.....so always
go to the doctor if this happens. Another issue is
how you advance the speculum into the ear canal.
Don't jam it all the way in and then look. Place the
speculum tip in the entrance of the canal, look
through the viewer, and then slowly advance the
speculum into the ear canal while you are looking
through the otoscope until you see the ear drum.
Then slowly advance more until the eardrum is in
focus as much as you think it can be in focus. The
eardrum is extremely thin, we do not want to damage
it. When looking at the eardrum, remember that it
has blood vessels, and if the child has been
screaming bloody murder right before or during the
otoscopy then the ear drum could be red just because
of the screaming and not because there is infection.
Please keep a log of what you see in the ear if
anything is abnormal. For those who have scheduled
appointments with the ENT, you know it can take a
long time to get in. You may catch the fact that
your kid is having an episode of ear problems with
your otoscope, but it could be resolved before your
appointment. It is still important to tell the ENT
what you saw and how long it occurred. Recurrent ear
problems need to be documented.
