What is an otoscopy, and what can your audiologist see? 👂
An otoscopy is a quick examination of your ear canal and eardrum using a specialised instrument called an otoscope.
During the examination, your audiologist will look for signs of earwax build up, irritation, infection, blockages or changes to the eardrum that may need further attention.
The procedure is usually quick and painless, helping your audiologist better understand your ear health and recommend the next steps if needed.
