Scubapro Doc’s Proplugs
Scubapro Doc’s Proplugs were developed and designed by a surfing physician and have been on the market since 1977. They are vented ear plugs that sit in the contours of the outer ear, providing a comfortable fit with little pressure. The vent helps to cut down on pressure within the ear, allowing for safer equalisation when scuba diving. The vent allows you to carry on a conversation without removing the plug.
Doc’s Proplugs can prevent swimmers ear and ear pain by blocking water from entering the ears, keeping ears warm and preventing the flushing of water in and out of the ear. Ear pain and infection are caused by cold exposure and erosion of delicate skin and wax in the ear canal.
Doc’s Proplugs have also been used by divers who have trouble equalising. Unlike other earplugs which are solid and would not be recommended for diving, Proplugs are vented to allow equalisation. While the small vent allows equalisation to occur it does not allow debris to enter and it prevents earwax from washing out which exposes delicate ear tissue. The Proplugs keep ears warm by storing the head’s conductive heat; the warmth provided by the plugs drastically reduces the risk of thermal shock.
