Click on the 'info' button within the App for details, and links for purchase.moreFor examination of the ears, the App is designed to work best with the OtoscopeApp OTOSCOPE ADAPTER device, which can be purchased at the OtoscopeApp website.The OtoscopeApp system can be used to safely examine the ears of both children and adults at home with little or no prior otoscopy experience. The ear canal, ear drum, any ear wax and ear tubes placed in surgery can all be easily seen. Directions: Prior to use, remove your smartphone from any case you might be using. Slide the OtoscopeApp.com Device on to the phone so that the main camera and flash are facing the extended, optical tube portion of the device. Snap one of the ear speculums onto the end of the optical tube and open the OtoscopeApp application on your mobile device. It is best to choose the largest ear speculum that will comfortably fit into the ear canal. The App will default to ideal lighting and zoom settings, though these can be adjusted if you wish. You can restart the App or hit the RESET button at the bottom of the screen to restore the default settings at any time. Insert the ear speculum gently into the external auditory canal of the ear while watching the screen on your smartphone. You will begin to see structures inside the ear come into view. It may help to use two hands one holding the phone to examine the ear and the other to gently pull the external ear upward and back. This will straighten out the EAC some for a better view. The phone should auto focus, though it may help to lock the auto-focus by hitting the AF/Lock button once the camera has focused adequately inside of the ear. Video capability is available on the PRO version of the App, available as an In-App purchase.If there is no evidence of external ear disease, the ear specula can be reused. Cleaning between each use is recommended using soap and warm water. You can also order new ear specula at our website. The ear speculum should not be inserted more than inch into the ear canal. Discontinue use immediately if any pain or discomfort is experienced. Do not use in patients with active ear drainage, bleeding or extremely small ear canals.
