ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic illumination system is supported upon the wrist and finger of a dentist, oral surgeon, or physician for lighting the oral cavity or other field of operation. A wrist-supported case houses a light bulb, battery, and switch for providing a source of light. A flexible fiber optic conductor conveys the light from the wrist-supported case to a finger supported lens for directing the beam of light in a direction controlled by movements of the finger. A quick release coupling allows the fiber optic conductor to be removed from the wrist supported case for sterilization of the components that come in contact with the patient. A remote light source can also be coupled to a light tunnel within the wrist-supported case for supplying light to the finger-supported lens.
