A fiber optic laryngoscope uses fiber optic technology to provide illumination and visualization, often resulting in better lighting and flexibility during intubation. In contrast, a standard laryngoscope typically uses a direct light source with a rigid blade, which may offer less flexibility but is often simpler and more cost-effective. The choice between them depends on the clinical setting and specific patient needs.
