Abstract
A speculum instrument with improved lighting means therefore is disclosed wherein the speculum barrel, which may be a single use disposable material, tapers to become increasingly larger at its proximal end. A smaller cylindrical sleeve member having a light transmitting flange or wall at one end, has the flange affixed into the larger proximal end of the barrel with the sleeve extending therefrom, to define an annular contamination isolated area with the flange directed towards the distal end of the barrel. A handle member containing a light source releasably engages the speculum barrel and provides lamp means in the isolated area to direct light through the barrel. An obturator in the barrel may be withdrawn through the sleeve.
