Diagnostic Penlights for Medical Examinations

Reusable medical penlights are the perfect instrument for doctors & nurses to examine the mouth and throat area. Some of the lights are even approved for use during eye exams.

Due to their shape, medical diagnostic torches are often called penlights. Their compact design allows doctors & nurses to carry them in the pocket of their scrubs or lab coat. Due to their compact size, medical penlights are generally used with AAA batteries to guarantee bright light in every examination situation.

Many penlights are equipped with a pocket clip on the side, to attach them to a lab coat or scrub. In our online shop, you will for example find the Luxamed Penlight with bulb, or the high-quality, robust mini-c Clip Torch from HEINE, with Xenon Halogen illumination. This mini torch with pocket clip & batteries from Heine Optotechnik provides particularly bright, concentrated light, thus making it ideal for examining a patient's throat. Additionally, the lamp automatically switches off in your pocket, thus preserving battery life.

Diagnostic torches with integrated tongue depressor holder are particularly handy as doctors and nurses can always keep one hand free while examining a patient. For medical students, on the other hand, we recommend the Student Set "Premium", which contains a medical penlight along with other high-quality supplies like a Littmann stethoscope and a reflex hammer made from medical grade steel.

Penlights for Eye Examinations

In addition to mouth and throat examinations, some medical penlights are used to examine the eyes. For this reason we offer equipment like the LED Penlight from Luxamed. This Penlight is equipped with a high-performance LED bulb, a shelf life of approx. 100,000 hours and a lighting duration of at least 50 hours. It is ideal for examining and diagnosing the throat area and eyes. The penlight is available in silver and many other attractive colours, such as white, red or black.

Another medical penlight for eye examinations is the Riester ri-pen Diagnostic Torch. It has been validated as a pupil light according to EN 62471:2008 and is ideal for medical environments, thanks to its disinfectable aluminium housing. The white light of the LED is UV-free and optimally illuminates the examination field. The aluminium housing is also particularly lightweight thus ideal for mobile use. The diagnostic pen torch is available in silver and many other colours.

For the paediatric field, we also offer the Kids Pen Torch with pocket clip, robust ABS plastic housing & batteries. The pen light torch can be bought with LED illumination or light bulb.
