Abstract
A cleaning device enables cleaning of a lens of an endoscope during a surgical procedure to maintain a clear image without having to remove the endoscope from the patient's body. The cleaning device is mountable to an endoscope such that a wiper of the cleaning device is selectively displaced across the lens of the endoscope to remove debris from the lens.
