Bowman Lacrimal Probe sterling size 0000/000

Refined Lacrimal Probing for Controlled Surgical Handling

The Bowman Lacrimal Probe sterling size 0000/000 is a fine dilator and probe intended for lacrimal probing and dilation tasks in general surgical practice. Its two stated sizes support selection appropriate to the procedural step and the anatomy being addressed, helping clinicians work with a focused instrument profile during delicate access and examination. As part of a specialized probe family, it provides a practical option for organized instrument handling when a narrow, purpose-specific tool is required. The probe’s straightforward format also supports clear identification and efficient integration into established preparation, use, cleaning, and storage workflows.

Use Cases

• Probe lacrimal passages during procedures requiring a fine, purpose-specific instrument.
• Perform staged lacrimal dilation using the stated 0000 and 000 sizes as appropriate to the task.
• Support controlled instrument handling during general surgery workflows involving lacrimal access.
• Select between the two named sizes when the procedural sequence calls for a smaller or larger probe.

Care & Handling

• Clean the probe promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect the probe before and after use for visible soil, surface damage, bending, or other changes that could affect handling.
• Handle the fine probe carefully during transfer, cleaning, and preparation to help prevent accidental damage.
• Store it in a manner that protects the probe from impact, bending, and contact with unsuitable instruments.
