Ocular Pen

The magnetic eye pencil is used to remove metallic or ferromagnetic foreign bodies from the surface of the eye: filings, metal splinters, iron shavings. Its pen-like shape allows for a precise and controlled approach to the affected area. It is particularly used in industrial first aid kits, in welding shops, for milling, cutting, or on construction sites.

Yes, the magnetic eye pencil is designed for use by a workplace first responder or any adult trained in first aid. The magnetic tip attracts the particle without requiring pressure or a sharp instrument. For any foreign object deeply embedded in the cornea, consult a doctor immediately or go to the emergency room.

These two pieces of equipment address different eye emergencies. The eyewash is used to rinse the eye after chemical splashes (acid, base, solvent) or to remove non-metallic particles by washing. The magnetic eye probe is used exclusively to extract metallic or ferromagnetic foreign bodies. For environments exposed to both types of risks, both pieces of equipment are complementary.

Yes, the SuperMedic ocular magnetic wand is reusable. After each use, wipe the tip with a sterile compress or compatible disinfectant to remove the extracted particle and disinfect the surface. Regularly check the integrity of the tip before including the equipment in your first aid kit.

In workplaces exposed to metal splashes, provincial authorities such as the WSIB (Ontario), WorkSafeBC (British Columbia), and the WCB (Alberta) strongly recommend the presence of an eye magnet in first aid kits. Some industrial sectors make it mandatory as part of their occupational health and safety program.
