Bowman lacrimal probe 5 1/8 double-ended size #5 and #6 bulbous ends, malleable stainless steel

Controlled Access for Lacrimal Dilation and Probing

The Bowman lacrimal probe is a double-ended instrument designed for lacrimal probing and dilation tasks in general surgery. Its size #5 and #6 bulbous ends provide two working options in one instrument, supporting selection according to the procedural requirement. The 5 1/8-inch length offers practical reach for controlled handling, while the malleable stainless steel construction allows the instrument to be shaped as needed during use.

Use Cases

• Use for lacrimal probing procedures requiring a Bowman-style probe.
• Select the size #5 or size #6 bulbous end according to the task at hand.
• Use the double-ended configuration to switch between two probe sizes without changing instruments.
• Shape the malleable probe to support controlled access and handling during appropriate procedures.
• Use within general surgery workflows involving dilator and probe instruments.
