What Is an Optical Trocar?
Trocars may be small, but they're some of the most important pieces of medical equipment used in hospitals and clinics around the world, crucial for a wide range of different procedures, from hernia operations to endoscopies. Optical trocars are some of the most effective and safest trocars to use.
As the name suggests, optical trocars have a special design that allows the user to have a clearer view of the inside of the body as the trocar is inserted. The design of the optical trocar allows each tissue layer to be visualized before the trocar passes through it, and this is very important in order to prevent the trocar from being pushed too deep into the body or from being inserted into the wrong location.
Like other trocars, optical trocars are available in a wide range of sizes, with different diameters and lengths for different situations. They’re also very versatile and may be used for many different medical procedures to both diagnose and treat patients.

How Does an Optical Trocar Work?
Optical trocars work just like many other kinds of trocars, as they need to be pushed into the body through an incision. First, the incision will need to be made, usually with the aid of anesthetic to numb any pain for the patient. Then, the optical trocar can be pushed into position, and the medical team can use the viewing area provided by the optical trocar to guide it into place with minimal risk of damage to surrounding tissue.
Optical Trocar Sizes
Just like with other trocars, it's possible to find a wide range of sizes of optical trocars. In terms of diameter, some of the most common sizes for these trocars range from 5mm up to 12mm.
Optical Trocar Types
There are a couple of different types of optical trocars. One example is the dilating tip optical trocar. This trocar has a widened tip compared to others, pushing more of the tissue apart to create a larger space and providing the user with an even clearer and larger view of the inside of the body during insertion. There are also blunt tip optical trocars which have rounded tips to help prevent any injury and ensure the safety of the patient.
Optical Trocar Uses
There are many potential uses of optical trocars, and as stated above, the main advantage of using these trocars is the fact that they allow the medical team to see clearly inside the body during the insertion phase of the trocar itself. This can be very important in a range of diagnostic and treatment processes, like endoscopies, helping to reduce the risk of any unnecessary and unwanted tissue damage for the patient.
