Exploratory probes designed for introduction into the eye and that are intended mainly for exploratory purposes. These probes typically consist of slender flexible metal or plastic cylinders with appropriate size for passing through the eye structures that may be attached to a handle at the proximal end; they can be flexible or rigid. Dedicated probes intended for particular areas of the eye, such as the lacrimal duct or during surgical procedures such as a trabeculectomy, are also available.
